摘要：

Physical activity (PA) appears to be limited in children with epilepsy (CWE). The unpredictability of seizure recurrence results in overprotection, isolation, and needless restrictions in their activity. PA level and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of CWE and children with no epilepsy (CWNE) were investigated. Data were analyzed using chisquare test and Spearman rank correlation coefficient. Majority reported moderate PA level, with a significantly lower mean PA score (2.45 +/- 0.68) in CWE compared with CWNE (3.06 +/- 0.72). Significant positive correlation was observed between HRQoL and PA level. However, CWE scored lower on every HRQoL scale item when compared with CWNE. It is imperative for CWE to be physically active to improve their HRQoL.
