The University of Pittsburgh received a $225,314 Project Grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders program (CFDA 93.853), awarded May 15, 2026, with completion targeted for April 30, 2031. This award supports the development and feasibility testing of the CARE (Counseling Adolescents About Reproductive Health and Epilepsy) intervention, a multi-level program designed to address reproductive health education gaps for reproductive-age youth with epilepsy. The intervention combines three components: online counseling skills training for child neurology clinicians, Short Messaging Service (SMS) follow-up messages for adolescent patients, and SMS messaging for caregivers to reinforce healthy reproductive health behaviors and contraceptive decision-making. The project addresses a critical clinical need, as reproductive-age youth with epilepsy face elevated risks of unplanned pregnancy and adverse outcomes due to potential interactions between antiseizure medications and contraceptive efficacy. Deliverables include optimization of the CARE intervention prototype based on input from key stakeholders (clinicians, youth, and caregivers) and feasibility testing to evaluate the intervention's practical implementation potential. This research aligns with NINDS's mission to reduce the burden of neurological disease through clinical investigation and the development of improved treatment and management approaches across affected populations.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
