Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals limited awareness and availability of seizure action plans among teachers in Karachi.

Key Points

  • The availability of seizure action plans in schools was reported by just 56.3% of participants, highlighting a critical resource shortage.
  • Most educators lacked essential first-aid knowledge, with only 53.1% able to provide aid during seizures.
  • Addressing barriers like funding and knowledge gaps can improve educational outcomes for students with epilepsy.
