About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Absence Seizures
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects should have an indication of having absence seizures
- Subjects should be admitted for video EEG monitoring as part of their clinical practice
- Age > 4 years
Exclusion Criteria:
- Head circumference should be compatible for wearable EEG device (40-70cm)
- The subject should be able to understand instructions and refrain from removing the device from its head
Sites / Locations
- Boston Children's Hospital
- UZ Leuven
- Danish Epilepsy Center
- Institute of Neurology and Neuropsychology
Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
All subjects
Arm Description
Subjects that undergo a clinical video EEG are asked to additionally wear a wearable EEG headband for up to 2 periods of 4h during the video EEG.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Sensitivity for electrographic seizures of study device compared to video EEG
The sensitivity for electrographic seizures by the study device compared to manually annotated electrographic seizures on non-video EEG is > 0.90 (median sensitivity per patient)
Number of false alarms by study device per hour
The number of false alarms by the study device < 0.1 per hour (median false detection rate per recording)
Secondary Outcome Measures
Feasibility testing of automated behavioral testing triggered by automated detection
Assess if automated behavioral testing triggered by automated detection can be used to automatically assess awareness during an absence seizure. Successful if subjects DO NOT react to the testing during an unaware seizure, and DO react during an aware seizure.
