Prevalence and patterns of comorbidities in individuals with epilepsy: A nationwide analysis using colombian healthcare registry data

This study provides critical insights into the burden of epilepsy-related comorbidities in Colombia, highlighting the importance of targeted interventions. The substantial comorbidity burden demonstrated across neurological, psychiatric, traumatic, and infectious domains underscores the importance of interdisciplinary, patient-centered care approaches that extend beyond seizure control. By addressing these comorbidities through integrated care models, clinicians can significantly improve both health outcomes and quality of life for people living with epilepsy.

Abstract

This study provides critical insights into the burden of epilepsy-related comorbidities in Colombia, highlighting the importance of targeted interventions. The substantial comorbidity burden demonstrated across neurological, psychiatric, traumatic, and infectious domains underscores the importance of interdisciplinary, patient-centered care approaches that extend beyond seizure control. By addressing these comorbidities through integrated care models, clinicians can significantly improve both health outcomes and quality of life for people living with epilepsy.
