Objective: Pediatric epilepsy and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) present a cumulative vulnerability to youth, particularly in the domains of executive function (EF) and quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to explore the relationships between EF and epilepsy-specific QoL in youth with epilepsy (YWE) who also have ADHD.
Methods: Youth with epilepsy aged 5-18 years and caregivers participated in a large multi-site national validation of the PedsQL™ Epilepsy Modules.
