A cognitive behavioral intervention (HOBSCOTCH) improves quality of life and attention in epilepsy
Abstract
Objective Cognitive difficulties in epilepsy are common and add to disability beyond seizures alone. A self-management intervention targeting cognitive dysfunction was developed and assessed for whether it improves quality of life, objective memory, and mood in adults with epilepsy.Methods The HOme Based Self-management and COgnitive Training CHanges lives (HOBSCOTCH) program was developed to incorporate (1) psychoeducation, (2) self-awareness training, (3) compensatory strategies, and (4) application of these strategies in day-to-day life using problem solving therapy. Adults aged 18-65 years with epilepsy (n=66) were randomized into 3 groups, to receive 8 weeks of HOBSCOTCH, with (H+) or without (H) additional working memory training on a commercial gaming device, or to a waitlisted control group. The primary outcome was quality of life (Quality of Life in Epilepsy scale, QOLIE-31) with secondary outcomes of objective cognition measured with the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) and depression (as measured by PHQ9 and NDDIE).Results Both intervention arms showed a significant improvement in quality of life, as compared with controls who demonstrated a decline in QOLIE-31 scores. There was significant improvement in objective cognitive performance among the intervention groups, most notably in attention, compared with the waitlisted controls. There was no significant change in depression scores.Significance The HOBSCOTCH program significantly improved quality of life and appeared to be an effective intervention to address cognitive dysfunction in adults with epilepsy. Further studies are needed to assess the generalizability and cost-effectiveness of this intervention.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
