Pilot Trial of a Behavioral Treatment for Epilepsy

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research study is to see if a behavioral program which includes a relaxation technique and lifestyle changes can improve seizure control and well-being in epilepsy patients.

Clinical Trial Description

The behavioral treatment approach studied aims to help epilepsy patients discover which circumstances and behaviors trigger their seizures. The most common seizure precipitants are irregularities of sleep, sensory triggers such as flashing lights and emotional stress. Patients will learn how to avoid seizure precipitants and how to stop seizures in their first beginnings. Study participants will continue their prior medications. ;
