Wearable Biosensors for Autoimmune Epilepsy
N/A
Waitlist Available
Led By Benjamin Brinkmann, PhD
Research Sponsored by Mayo Clinic
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Patients diagnosed with or suspected of having autoimmune epilepsy
Normal controls - cognitively normal subjects without epilepsy
Must not have
Presence of open or healing wounds near monitoring sites (infection risk)
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up 10 days
Awards & highlights
No Placebo-Only Group
Summary
This trial seeks to detect physical signals that can help predict epileptic seizures, such as heart rate, muscle activity and EEG.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals diagnosed with or suspected to have autoimmune epilepsy, as well as healthy people without epilepsy. Participants must be able to manage smart devices and not have open wounds near monitoring sites or cognitive conditions that would limit cooperation.
What is being tested?
The study is testing wearable biosensors on patients with autoimmune epilepsy and healthy subjects. It aims to identify consistent changes in physical signals like heart rate, muscle activity, and brain waves before and during seizures.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves non-invasive wearable devices, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from wearing the device or skin irritation at the site of wear.
