Wearable Devices to Monitor Seizures in Autoimmune Epilepsy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this research is to search for reproducible changes in a wide range of physical signals, including heart rate, muscle tone and activity and EEG before and at the onset of seizures in patients with epilepsy.

Experimental: Autoimmune Epilepsy with Biosensors Subjects with suspected autoimmune epilepsy will wear biosensors on wrist or upper arm during the at home monitoring period. |
Device: Biosensor
Noninvasive wearable biosensor device worn on the primary affected wrist or upper arm for as much time as is feasible for 7-10 days
|
Active Comparator: Healthy Controls with Biosensors Neurologically normal adult healthy controls will wear biosensors on wrist or upper arm during the at home monitoring period. |
Device: Biosensor
Noninvasive wearable biosensor device worn on the primary affected wrist or upper arm for as much time as is feasible for 7-10 days
