| Popis: | The management of epilepsy has reached a point of substantial change and vigorous debate. To enable hospital doctors throughout the UK to keep informed on rapidly changing patterns of management for patients with epilepsy, a series of study days have been arranged by the Education in Epilepsy Group (EEG), sponsored by Marion Merrell Dow. This initiative begins with an expert panel, of whom Dr Jolyon Oxley, London (Chairman), and panelists Dr Richard Appleton (Liverpool), Dr Tim Betts (Birmingham), Dr Stephen Brown (Alderley Edge), Mr Brian Chappell (BEA, Leeds), Dr Pamela Crawford (York) and Dr Ley Sander (Chalfont Centre), comprised the first meeting. Each member of the panel made a short presentation on key areas of modern epilepsy care ranging from who should treat epilepsy to a patient’s perspective on the quality of life. The panel then discussed each presentation and modifications were made until a broad consensus was reached. These presentations formed the basis for future specialist discussion at study days throughout Great Britain, which started in November at the David Lewis Centre. This report presents some of the key points made during the panel’s discussion. |
