简要总结
By bringing together the fields of seizure detection and that of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP), the current project aims at delineating which set of biosensors and related biomarkers would optimally characterize the severity of GTCS and the associated risk of SUDEP.
详细描述
The main objective is to to evaluate which of the five biosignals considered, being, electrodermal activity (EDA), heart rate (HR), accelerometry (AC), arm-measurement of skin electromyography (EMG), and bed sensing of body movement (BM), or any of their combinations, offers the most accurate detection and quantification of our primary indicator of GTCS-severity, i.e. postictal EEG suppression (PGES).

入选标准
- •Male or female aged 12 years or older, suffering from epilepsy
- •Patient undergoing Video-EEG recording
- •Patient at risk of presenting a GTCS during Video-EEG monitoring according to one of the following criteria (i) known to suffer from GTCS, or (ii) considered for Antiepileptic drugs (AED) tapering during Video-EEG (GTCS often occur during Video-EEG as a result of AED tapering for promoting the occurrence of seizures).
- •Patient willing to participate in the study and signed informed consent, by patient or legal representative when required.
排除标准
- •Patients aged less than 12 years old
- •Patient not willing to participate in the study, and where informed consent from the patient or the legal representative, when required, cannot be obtained - Patient considered not at risk of presenting a GTCS during Video-EEG because they are not known to suffer GTCS and not candidate to AED tapering during Video-EEG.
结局指标
主要结局
duration of PGES
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 4 years
The primary endpoint of the study is the duration of PGES, as defined by a postictal EEG flattening \<10microvolt over all scalp-EEG leads (time in seconds). When no PGES is observed, the duration will be coded as 0. This will be used as a dependent variable in the primary analysis.
