Epilepsy and Intellectual disabilities: Supporting positive health outcomes using CRIS data.

  • Applicant: Sheryl Hayfron
  • Project ID: 18-055

This study will investigate the prevalence of co-occurring epilepsy and intellectual disability (ID) of individuals currently under the care of the four SLaM community teams for adults with intellectual disabilities. We will evaluate whether an epilepsy risk assessment and emergency plan are available for patients with epilepsy and ID, in relation to Royal College of Psychiatrists recommendations.

The Clinical Record Interactive Search (CRIS) system is a computer system that allows researchers at the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) to carry out research using information from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust clinical records.
