NCT ID NCT06095284
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how often antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are prescribed to long-stay nursing home residents with dementia, especially before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers will analyze data from millions of residents to see if these medications are being used more, even though they are not tracked by Medicare like other psychoactive drugs. The goal is to understand prescribing patterns and any related health outcomes.
