Identifying the trajectory of social milestones 15‐20 years after epilepsy surgery: Realistic timelines for postsurgical expectations

Objective Patients often undertake epilepsy surgery with the expectation that it will lead to improvements in their social situation. Short‐ to medium‐term research consistently points toward improvements in social outcomes; however, no study has mapped out postsurgical social timelines, particularly for longer‐term (>15 years) outcomes. Methods We recruited 39 patients who had undergone anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) between 1994 and 2002. The cohort (24 females) had a median age of 49 years (range 38‐67), age of habitual seizure onset was 9.5 years (range 0.5‐29 years), and age at surgery was 31 years (range 20‐53). Patients were followed up for a median of 18.4 years postsurgery (IQR = 4.4). Using data obtained from semistructured interviews, we conducted a comprehensive qualitative analysis of patients' self‐reported postsurgical social trajectories. Self‐report questionnaires were used to assess mood and health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) at the time of interview. Results There was a common sequence of social milestone achievement, spanning 20 years postsurgery. Typically, patients first (re)gained their license, then attempted educational and vocational gains, followed by establishing long‐term relationships and finally a family unit. Rare, intermittent seizures postsurgery did not appear to have detrimental effects on social trajectories. Those who experienced a reduction in seizures showed increased likelihood of attaining social milestones compared to those with ongoing seizures. Significance Achieving social milestones after epilepsy surgery may take considerably longer than patients are expecting prior to surgery. The pattern of social milestone outcome resembled a process of psychosocial development. These findings have important implications for presurgical counseling and postsurgical rehabilitation.

“…L'analyse fut réalisée en suivant les étapes de la théorie ancrée ( « grounded theory » ), permettant ainsi l'émergence de concepts à partir des données ellesmêmes (Stern et Porr, 2011 (Caune, 2012 ;Lacerte, 2007 ;Lafortune et Legault, 2012 ;Jacob et Bélanger, 2014). Les sujets-participants mentionnent tous à leur façon l'accompagnement, la notion de « faire le pont », de lier les acquis et les nouvelles connaissances par la « transmission de clés » de lecture et d'observation des oeuvres.…”

Educational Linguistics

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Educational Linguistics is dedicated to innovative studies of language use and language learning. The series is based on the idea that there is a need for studies that break barriers. Accordingly, it provides a space for research that crosses traditional disciplinary, theoretical, and/or methodological boundaries in ways that advance knowledge about language (in) education. The series focuses on critical and contextualized work that offers alternatives to current approaches as well as practical, substantive ways forward. Contributions explore the dynamic and multi-layered nature of theory-practice relationships, creative applications of linguistic and symbolic resources, individual and societal considerations, and diverse social spaces related to language learning.The series publishes in-depth studies of educational innovation in contexts throughout the world: issues of linguistic equity and diversity; educational language policy; revalorization of indigenous languages; socially responsible (additional) language teaching; language assessment; fi rst-and additional language literacy; language teacher education; language development and socialization in non-traditional settings; the integration of language across academic subjects; language and technology; and other relevant topics.
