Risk Factors for Excessive Screen Exposure in Children With Epilepsy: A Cross-Sectional Study in Assiut, Egypt
The findings of this study underscore that excessive screen exposure in pediatric patients with epilepsy is independently associated with modifiable sociobehavioral and clinical factors, including pre-sleep screen use, caregiver engagement in screen content discussions, and parental educational attainment. Interventions focused on these factors may help reduce seizure triggers and enhance overall health outcomes.
