Clinical Trial Summary

This is a study which seeks to develop a novel therapeutic approach, Intersectional Short Pulse (ISP) stimulation for seizure termination. The device embodiment of ISP is a scalp EEG recording system which also delivers spatially precise electrical stimulation in short pulses to the targeted brain region. The study team has already collected safety and tolerability data in human subjects, demonstrated ISP efficacy in terminating seizures in rodents, and have tested the efficacy of this device to modulate normal human brain activity. Now this study proposes to test the device's efficacy in stopping seizures in a within-subject randomized, sham-controlled study design.

Intervention

Device:
• SeizureStop Device
Intersectional Short Pulse (ISP) Stimulation will be performed using SeizureStop Device. The ISP stimulation method proposed in this study is to increase the intensity of stimulation delivered to targeted brain regions, while minimizing the peripheral effects of stimulation. For sham stimulation, no settings will be modified.
