Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Epilepsy is one of the most common serious chronic brain disorders and is poorly understood by the general population, having been associated with numerous misconceptions and beliefs. This, coupled with its dramatic clinical manifestations, has resulted in a strong social stigma, and physical trauma due to the unknown delivery of first aid care.
METHODS: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from February 19 to March 31, 2021. Structured self-administered questionnaires were used to collect data, which were comprised of knowledge and practice questions. Knowledge and practice among participants could be measured using the Chi-square (χ2) test of independence at p-values <0.05.
RESULTS: A total of 378 participants with a mean age of 34.2 ± 7.8 SD have participated, with a response rate of 92%. Of the total respondents, about 144 (41.1%) and 143 (40.9%) had good knowledge and practice, respectively. Generally, teachers who were trained in first aid had fewer scores (25.6%) than those who were not (43.1%). Teachers who had heard about epilepsy (44.2%) had a higher opportunity to have good knowledge than those who had not heard about epilepsy.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that there was a gap in the knowledge and practice of teachers regarding epileptic seizures.

摘要：
背景：癫痫是最常见的严重慢性脑部疾病之一，一般人群对此了解甚少，与许多误解和信仰有关。这个,加上其戏剧性的临床表现，导致了强烈的社会耻辱，以及由于未知的急救护理而造成的身体创伤。
方法：于2021年2月19日至3月31日进行了一项基于机构的横断面研究。结构化的自我管理问卷被用来收集数据，由知识和实践问题组成。参与者的知识和实践可以在p值<0.05时使用卡方(χ2)检验独立性来测量。
结果：共有378名平均年龄为34.2±7.8SD的参与者参加了，响应率为92%。在所有受访者中，约144(41.1%)和143(40.9%)具有良好的知识和实践，分别。一般来说,接受过急救培训的教师的分数(25.6%)低于未接受急救培训的教师(43.1%)。听说过癫痫的教师(44.2%)比没有听说过癫痫的教师有更高的机会获得良好的知识。
结论：这项研究表明，教师对癫痫发作的认识和实践存在差距。
