| Results and Impact | I am part of the Outcome Measures Committee of the British Paediatric Neurology Association (BPNA). The BPNA runs short courses such as the Paediatric Epilepsy Course which has taught evidence-based best practice in the care of children with epilesy to over 14,000 healthcare practitioners in 5 continents. The Committee is tasked with measuring the outcomes of this short course. I have created and analysed outcome measures for over 7000 participants which has been submitted for publication. The work has also lead to the PET courses being recommended by the World Health Organization. https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240064072 (p42) |
