Key predictors of the need for a family-focused pediatric epilepsy adherence intervention.

We identified that parent and family factors, as well as sociodemographic characteristics, predicted membership in the suboptimal adherence group. It is critical to find creative and practical solutions for assessing and intervening upon key adherence predictors. These may include streamlined screening for parental distress and family functioning, as well as recognition that families of lower SES and communities of color may be at heightened risk for suboptimal adherence.
