Background: The relationship between parent health literacy and adherence to treatment in children with epilepsy has not been fully explored. The purpose of this study was to determine whether parent health literacy and other variables predicted factors associated with adherence, such as missed medication doses, missed medical appointments, and seizure frequency, in children with epilepsy between 1 and 12 years old.
Methods: It was hypothesized that parents with adequate parent health literacy would report fewer missed doses, missed appointments, and seizure occurrences.
