Can a simple step goal help control epilepsy?

NCT ID NCT05359003

Summary

This small study tested whether a 12-week walking program, delivered through video calls and using a step-tracking watch, was practical and acceptable for adults with epilepsy. Researchers wanted to see if encouraging people to reach a daily step goal could improve their activity levels and potentially help with seizures, mood, and sleep. The study compared the walking program group to a group that only received general health education.
