Filter by:This is an open label, randomized, prospective study of the impact on healthcare utilization of a surface Electromyography (sEMG) based seizure monitoring and alerting system for Veterans with a history of motor seizures (epileptic, non-epileptic or unknown) with upper extremity motor involvement, presenting with questionable spell characterization, taking place in the home setting.
The "North Carolina Clinical Genomic Evaluation by Next-gen Exome Sequencing, 2 (NCGENES 2)" study is part of a larger consortium project investigating the clinical utility, or net benefit of an intervention on patient and family well-being as well as diagnostic efficacy, management planning, and medical outcomes. A clinical trial will be implemented to compare (1) first-line exome sequencing to usual care and (2) participant pre-visit preparation to no pre-visit preparation. The study will use a randomized controlled design, with 2x2 factorial design, coupled with patient-reported outcomes and comprehensive clinical data collection addressing key outcomes, to determine the net impact of diagnostic results and secondary findings.
Multicenter global post-market registry of subjects diagnosed with drug resistant epilepsy and treated with the VNS Therapy System.
The purpose of this study is to examine safety signals and demonstrate seizure reduction in adults with FIAS treated with BIS-001ER as an add-on therapy in an in-patient and out-patient study design.
This multi-site study will examine patients with epilepsy (ES) following head injury [i.e., posttraumatic epilepsy (PTE)] and posttraumatic psychogenic Non-epileptic seizures (PNES) and will compare them to patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) who do not have seizures using functional neuroimaging.
This is a prospective, comparative, multicenter study of subjects being admitted for standard of care therapy in Epilepsy Monitoring Units in the Veteran's Affair (VA) Medical Centers.
To demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Embrace device in identifying convulsive seizures (CS) and notifying a caregiver during patient hospitalization at an epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU).
This trial aims to assess the efficacy and tolerability of Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) as an alternative to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for depression. Even with multiple medication trials, 30 - 40% of patients will experience a pharmacologically resistant form of illness. The ineffectiveness of current treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) coupled with the economic burden associated with the disorder engenders a need for novel therapeutic interventions that can provide greater response and remission rates.
There are no guidelines or studies evaluating duration of anti-epileptic drugs in central nervous system infections. The duration of anti-epileptic drug is extrapolated from traumatic brain injury in which duration of 1 weeks to 3 months is suggested. So the investigators plan to conduct this study to decide the optimal duration of anti-epileptic drug in acute symptomatic seizure in central nervous system infections
This is an observational study of subjects receiving standard of care therapy, while admitted to Epilepsy Monitoring Unit, Department of Neurology, General Hospital Hietzing with Neurological Center Rosenhügel. Additional monitoring provided by the SPEAC System will be compared to the gold standard, vEEG. The SPEAC System is being evaluated while being used in adjunct to standard of care.
