Scientists track hidden mental toll of epilepsy surgery

NCT ID NCT06792383

Summary

This study aims to understand how brain surgery for severe epilepsy affects patients' mental health and quality of life. Researchers will follow 180 adults with drug-resistant epilepsy who are eligible for surgery, tracking their mood, anxiety, and daily experiences over a year. The goal is to gather detailed information to help future patients by observing changes before and after the procedure, not by testing a new treatment.
