Anxiety and Depression in Epilepsy: Assessing Outcomes Using the Electronic Medical Record (EMR)

The purpose of this research is to find out how people with epilepsy and possible symptoms of
anxiety or depression are doing for 6 months after a regular epilepsy clinic visit.
Participants in this study will complete questionnaires either by phone or via the patient
portal.

This is a study among N=30 individuals with epilepsy and high or borderline anxiety or
depression symptoms receiving usual care at the Wake Forest Comprehensive Epilepsy Center.
Participants are randomized to one of two outcome assessment methods
[EMR-based-interventional method vs. telephone-based-standard method] for collecting quality
of life, anxiety and depression outcomes at 3 and 6 months, under usual care management.

The primary aim of the study is to assess feasibility of EMR-based outcome assessment by
measuring 6-month retention.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Adequate cognition

- Diagnosis of epilepsy: EEG with documented seizure or epileptiform discharges OR non-
epileptiform EEG and seizure remission with antiseizure drug OR treating epilepsy
