Active clinical trials for "Seizures"

In Kuopio University Hospital Department of Clinical Neurophysiology there have been designed a fast EEG electrode, that is suitable for acute emergency use. This study will address the clinical use of acute EEG with this fast EEG electrode in in- hospital patients who have been resuscitated due to cardiac arest. After resuscitation patients will be treated in ICU and EEG will be recorded for 24 hours.

This is an open label prospective study of the impact on healthcare utilization of a surface Electromyography (sEMG) based seizure detection system for detecting Generalized Tonic-Clonic (GTC) Seizures.

For any newborn that exhibits possible seizure activity or has altered mental status of unknown etiology, continuous bedside EEG recording is the standard of care to detect subclinical seizure activity. The experimental aspect of this study will be the application of test electrodes (EES or EKG) to evaluate if the electrodes can be used to produce a continuous bedside recording of brain activity in the same manner as an EEG recording, while ideally producing less irritation of newborn skin than conventional EEG electrodes.

This study examines the use of an online social media platform (PatientsLikeMe) to assist Veterans with epilepsy. The hypothesis is that the online social media platform, PatientsLikeMe, will improve selected patient-reported outcomes on perceived self-management skills for patients who engage in the website functions.

The goal of this study is to evaluate effectiveness of the phone follow-up method compared to the conventional filler taken one.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of the NeuroSigma eTNS system.

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 case-crossover study evaluates the association between vaping and seizures in patients of a large academic medical center who admits to vaping and hav a planned ambulatory EEG ordered.

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of prospectively enrolling and randomizing patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) to receive levetiracetam or not to receive levetiracetam, and documenting in-hospital and follow-up clinical variables.
