Impact of Absence Seizures on Physical Activity Levels in Children: A Cross-Sectional Study
Children with absence seizures face significant barriers to physical activity, which may be further compounded by psychological distress. These findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions to improve physical activity and address mental health concerns in this population. By enhancing physical activity levels and supporting psychological well-being, interventions can improve the quality of life and overall health of children with absence seizures. Additionally, the results highlight the importance of promoting inclusive physical activity programs for children with neurological conditions.
