摘要
Background: epilepsy is a common neurological disorder among school children. While school teachers are the most and available caregivers for these students. The researchers found it necessary to search and review the current knowledge, attitude and first aid toward epilepsy among school teachers in Saudi Arabia. Methods: in this article, we review a state of art of over view about knowledge, attitude and first aid toward epilepsy among school teachers in Saudi Arabia. Results: this review confirmed a low to moderate knowledge, positive attitude and need for training about first aids. Conclusion: the researches emphasize the important role of school teachers in reducing epilepsy related physical, social, psychological and academic problems among students. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the teachers' level of knowledge, attitude and practices regarding epilepsy and its consequences.
