Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The Epilepsy Learning Health System (ELHS) is a quality improvement and research network to improve outcomes for people with epilepsy. The ELHS is designed as a model of value-based chronic care for epilepsy as envisioned by the National Academies of Medicine Committee in their landmark reports The Learning Health System and Epilepsy Across the Spectrum: Promoting Health and Understanding. The ELHS network is a collaboration among clinicians, patients and researchers that promotes the use of data for multiple purposes including one-on-one clinical care, population management, quality improvement and research. The ELHS Registry includes data on children and adults with epilepsy collected during the process of standard epilepsy care. These data are used to create population health reports and to track changes in outcomes over time. ELHS teams use quality improvement methods, such as Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles, to continuously learn how to improve care.

Treatments
Barrow Neurological Institute Comprehensive Epilepsy Center
Centers participating in ELHS will work towards accomplishing the improved process and clinical outcomes by implementing changes via Quality Improvement methodology in the context of a Chronic Care model. Specifically, programs will introduce common data elements and standardized epilepsy care metrics followed by rapid cycle feedback via site specific and overall network outcomes. Interventions will then be introduced based upon evidence-based recommendations to improve outcomes. Network-based changes to practice such as those suggested have never been realized in the domain of epilepsy to date.
