Filter by:Evaluate the long-term clinical effectiveness and safety of the PINS vagus nerve stimulator to patients with refractory epilepsy.
Prospective study of an electromyography (EMG) based seizure detection and warning system for detecting generalized tonic-clonic (GTC) seizures.
There are no solid treatment guidelines for idiopathic intractable epilepsy in children. The investigators propose that vitamin C being an antioxidant will improve seizure frequency and EEG in children with idiopathic intractable epilepsy.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of GWP42006 compared with placebo, in the presence of other antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
To investigate the potential antiepileptic effects of GWP42006 as add-on therapy in subjects with inadequately controlled focal seizures.
The investigators will conduct a prospective, seven-month pilot study to explore pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects among women with epilepsy using the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG IUS) for contraception. The investigators will enroll twenty women with well-controlled epilepsy maintained on stable anti-epileptic drugs (AED) therapy seeking the LNG IUS for contraception. The primary outcomes are AED levels and seizures before and after LNG IUS placement. Secondary outcomes include LNG levels, evidence of ovulation three weeks after insertion (serum progesterone >3ng/ml), bleeding and spotting, endometrial thickness, continuation, satisfaction and adverse events (removals, expulsions, side effects). The investigators will conduct a baseline month assessment, insertion visit, and follow-up visits at 21 days, three months and six months.
Randomized, double-blind trial to investigate the influence of a single 4 hours episode of transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation on the expression of microRNA, various cytokines, chemokines, neuropeptides, cerebral resting state and gastric motility in healthy volunteers.
To evaluate the efficacy of open-label ganaxolone as adjunctive therapy for uncontrolled seizures in female children with PCDH19 mutation and other rare genetic epilepsies in an open-label proof-of-concept study.
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases.Approximately 53 million people suffering from chronic recurrent epilepsy in 1990 and that number increased about 58 million in 2005. The annual incidence of epilepsy varies considerably in different epidemiological studies, ranging from 11 cases per 100,000 general population to 230 cases per 100,000 people. To date there has been discovered the ideal Antiepileptic Drugs. The drug, ie, that are safe and effective, it has good daily administration frequency, easily administered from all roads, which has high bioavailability, which is not highly bound to proteins, and not holding inductive or inhibitory effect.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether people who usually have photosensitive epilepsy will show a reduction in epileptic activity when they take a single dose of Staccato Alprazolam as compared to placebo.
