Filter by:The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of long-term video EEG monitoring using 10-20 electrodes extended with intra-auricular electrodes in locating the seizure onset zone and interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and nontemporal lobe epilepsy (non-TLE).
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of objective neural response feedback on deep brain stimulation (DBS) programming for drug-resistant epilepsy in a prospective observational cohort study.
This multisite prospective clinical study is to investigate the relationship between seizure type and frequency with the BioEP result during ASM titration in newly diagnosed patients with epilepsy, and to assess the utility of BioEP as an early prognostic indicator of ASM efficacy
The CENOBITE study will be conducted as a multi-center trial involving X leading centers from the Critical Care EEG Monitoring Consortium (CCEMRC). A total of 10 patients will be recruited over a period of one year, with each patient undergoing monitored treatment regimen. Each site will obtain its own approval from their institutional review board. Data will be shared through the MGB REDCap; raw EEG files will be shared through the MGB Dropbox and analyzed at the BWH. Monitoring for the development of Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) syndrome, a potential adverse reaction, will be a key aspect of the study. Regular assessments, including RegiSCAR scoring (a validated scoring system for DREeSS5), daily serum cenobamate level measurements, and comprehensive lab tests, will be conducted to ensure patient safety and the effective management of any adverse reactions such as DRESS syndrome.
For this study, the proposed intervention will be noninvasively delivered near infra-red (NIR) light - transcranial Photobiomodulation (tPBM) - to the brains of autistic children. This will occur, twice a week, for 10 weeks. The NIR light is delivered to specific brain areas by Cognilum, a wearable device developed by Jelikalite. The expected outcome is improved focus, improved eye contact, improved speech, improved behavior, and gains in functional skills. Cognilum may impact the clinical practice of treating autism. At the beginning, at five weeks, and at the end of study, the clinician will complete the CARS-2, SRS, CGI, and a caregiver interview; additionally, questionnaires will be administered to caregivers during one of the 1-hour weekly treatment sessions.
This is an open label, single arm, interventional, prospective first in human study, designed to evaluate the safety of the NAO.VNS SYSTEM.
The goal of this clinical trial is to to obtain a significant decrease in seizure frequency in patients with refractory focal epilepsy after applying treatment of cathodal tDCS, compared to sham stimulation drug-resistant epileptic patient. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Changes in quality of life - Percent of newly reported side effects after the stimulation period - Scores in epilepsy severity. Participants will be randomized in a cross-over, and will receive 10 days of tDCS or Sham. Each day will allow 2 periods of 20 minutes stimulation separated by 20 minutes off (with 40 minutes of cathodal stimulation total).
The purpose of the study is to investigate the long-term safety and tolerability of brivaracetam in study participants with childhood absence epilepsy or juvenile absence epilepsy.
This study wants to make it easier to find kids with a type of epilepsy called childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) who might have problems with ongoing seizures and thinking. Right now, doctors use tests that can be expensive and take a long time. Eysz is developing a system that looks at how kids move their eyes which might help find CAE more quickly and accurately. This study will compare Eysz with the usual tests to see if it can predict seizures and thinking problems in kids with CAE. The goal is to find these problems earlier and help kids do better in school and life.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BHV-7000 is effective in the treatment of refractory focal epilepsy.
