Study of seizures in newborns and how often they occur

Seizures

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This study looks at newborns (up to 28 days old) who have seizures to understand them better, using EEG brain-wave testing. If you agree to participate and can follow the study plan, your child’s information may help researchers learn more about neonatal seizures.

Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
