MINDSET: Clinic-based decision support demonstrates longitudinal efficacy for increased epilepsy self-management adherence among Spanish speaking patients.

Background: MINDSET, a bilingual (Eng./Span.) decision support tool was found feasible for facilitating goal-based epilepsy self-management (ESM) in the clinic.

MINDSET: Clinical feasibility of utilizing the revised epilepsy self-management tool for Spanish speaking patients.

This paper describes the expanded English/Spanish version of the Management Information and Decision Support Epilepsy Tool (MINDSET) as well as the methods and findings from a feasibility study conducted from July 2016 through February 2017 with 43 Spanish and English-speaking Hispanic people living with epilepsy (PWE) in Arizona (n = 23) and Texas (n = 20) over two consecutive regular clinic visits. The expansion of MINDSET added goal setting and strategy selection to improve self-management (S-M) in PWE. The previous study tested the feasibility of English MINDSET, which was designed to facilitate the identification and discussion of S-M issues between the patient and healthcare provider (HCP) during a regular clinic visit.
