Recorded music to see how it affects seizures
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study is testing whether listening to recorded music can change seizure activity and brain-wave patterns in children monitored in an epilepsy center. Your child might benefit by helping researchers learn how music could affect seizures during close observation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be 4 to 17 years old
- Your child must stay in an epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU) for up to 7 days
- Your child must be able to participate in a non-English-free setting (study requires English)
- The study may be limited to children who stay at the monitoring unit long enough to do the measurements

This study tests a brain-recording and brain-stimulation approach to help improve memory. It is offered to adults who are already enrolled in a specific epilepsy surgery program and can safely complete memory-related tasks.
This trial tests whether music can improve sleep in children with epilepsy. It may help if your child has trouble sleeping and you can answer questionnaires in Chinese.
This study is testing a music-based app that you can use at home to help treat seizures. It is for adults with focal epilepsy who already have an RNS device and whose seizures are not controlled by medication.
This trial studies whether carefully timed sound (“auditory stimulation”) can change sleep patterns and memory in people with epilepsy. It may help researchers understand how to improve thinking and memory by adjusting how the brain sleeps.
This study tests a new ear-worn sensor to monitor brain activity. It will see if the device is safe and easy to use for recording seizures. Healthy volunteers and people with suspected seizures are both needed.
This trial tests whether a guided music program (called “The Lullaby Project”) can be helpful during pregnancy for people with epilepsy. It focuses on participating in online musical sessions while you’re pregnant.
