| Abstract;We conducted an anonymous questionnaire mail survey on patients, who had received medication instructions while hospitalized and were later discharged from the Department of Child Neurology from the first of October 1993 to the end of November 1995. The average age of the patients was 5.4 (0-21) years old, and the average frequency of medication instruction was 8.4 (1-46) times. The results of the overall evaluation from patients and/or their family to the medication instruction was "It was good"; 92.3%, "Can not judge"; 6.6%, and "It was bad"; 1.1%, Moreover, it was "Necessary"; 93.4%, "Not necessary"; 1.1%, and "Can not judge"; 5.5%. Regarding the question "Were the medication instructions sufficient?" "It was good" was 92.3% as an overall evaluation. Therefore, the medication instructions were generally considered to be good by the patients and/or their family. The results obtained from this survey were thus valuable in evaluating the medication instructions for child epilepsy patients. (author abst.) |
