valproic acid and Epilepsy, Tonic-Clonic

valproic acid has been researched along with Epilepsy, Tonic-Clonic in 158 studies

Valproic Acid: A fatty acid with anticonvulsant and anti-manic properties that is used in the treatment of EPILEPSY and BIPOLAR DISORDER. The mechanisms of its therapeutic actions are not well understood. It may act by increasing GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID levels in the brain or by altering the properties of VOLTAGE-GATED SODIUM CHANNELS.
valproic acid : A branched-chain saturated fatty acid that comprises of a propyl substituent on a pentanoic acid stem.

Epilepsy, Tonic-Clonic: A generalized seizure disorder characterized by recurrent major motor seizures. The initial brief tonic phase is marked by trunk flexion followed by diffuse extension of the trunk and extremities. The clonic phase features rhythmic flexor contractions of the trunk and limbs, pupillary dilation, elevations of blood pressure and pulse, urinary incontinence, and tongue biting. This is followed by a profound state of depressed consciousness (post-ictal state) which gradually improves over minutes to hours. The disorder may be cryptogenic, familial, or symptomatic (caused by an identified disease process). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p329)

Change in Caregiver Global Impression of Change (CGIC) Score

The CGIC is a 1-item, parent/caregiver-completed assessment used determine how much their child/care-recipient has improved with treatment. The instrument asks parents/caregivers to rate their child's/care-recipient's improvement as: 1) very much improved; 2) much improved; 3) minimally improved; 4) unchanged; 5) a little worse; 6) much worse; 7) very much worse; the total score correspondingly ranges from 1-7.

Change in Pediatric Quality Of Life (PEDS-QL) Epilepsy Module Raw Score

The PedsQL Epilepsy Module is a 29-item measure with five scales: Impact, Cognitive, Sleep, Executive Function, and Mood/Behavior. The Impact scale (nine items) assesses how epilepsy interferes with daily activities, interacting with peers, independence, and increased disease burden due to treatment. The Cognitive Scale (six items) assesses memory, ability to learn new materials, school-related difficulties, and reading difficulties. The Sleep Scale (three items) assesses fatigue and sleep difficulties. The Executive Function Scale (six items) assesses organization, task initiation, impulsivity, and inattention. The Mood/Behavior Scale (five items) assesses feelings of anger, sadness, worries, and frustration tolerance. Scores range from 0-100 for each subscale, with higher scores representing better quality of life. The raw score is the sum of each subscale score and ranges from 0-500. (NCT03861871)

Change in Quality of Life in Childhood Epilepsy (QOLCE) Score

Parent/caregiver-completed assessment assessing how epilepsy affects day-to-day functioning of their child/care-recipient in various life areas. Each item is ranked on a 5-point Likert scale from 1 (response correlated with the lowest possible quality of life) to 5 (response correlated with the highest possible quality of life). Item scores are then transformed to a 0-100 scale as follows: 1 = 0, 2 = 25, 3 = 50, 4=75, and 5=100. The total score is the average of all item scores and ranges from 0-100. Higher scores indicate greater quality of life; an increase in scores indicates quality of life increased during the observational period. (NCT03861871)
