Seizure Detection With a Deep Brain Stimulation System
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of chronic ambulatory thalamus seizure detection. The sensitivity, specificity, and false alarm rate of thalamus seizure detection will be calculated using recordings from a deep brain stimulation system, assessed relative to concurrent gold-standard video-EEG monitoring collected in the in-patient setting (epilepsy monitoring unit), in 5 patients with drug resistant epilepsy.
⁃ Participants must meet all of the inclusion criteria to participate in this study:
• 18 years of age and older.
• Implanted with a clinical DBS system for epilepsy with brain recording capabilities (Medtronic Percept™ DBS).
• Subject or legally authorized representative is able to understand study procedures and to comply with them for the entire length of the study.
