Validating an EEG tool for seizure risk
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study checks whether a new computer tool can help doctors interpret EEG results from adults who had a routine outpatient EEG after a possible seizure. It looks back at past records to see if the tool correctly spots seizure risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were 22 or older when you had a routine outpatient EEG because of a possible seizure.
- Your final diagnosis (epilepsy or another condition) has been stable for at least 3 years.
- You do not have both epilepsy and non-epileptic seizures.
- You have no metal or plastic implants in your brain or skull, and no major brain surgery or skull injury history.
- You have not had an EEG after staying awake all night (sleep-deprived).

This study looks at whether a special EEG test (BioEP) can help doctors know early on if anti-seizure medication will work for you. It is for adults who have just been diagnosed with epilepsy and are starting medication for the first time.
This study uses brain recordings to better understand epilepsy signals. It may help people who need EEG monitoring for clinical care, and it may also use healthy adults as comparison participants.
This trial studies a new way of analyzing EEG results to help doctors decide if a first suspected seizure was caused by epilepsy. If you had a first seizure and your EEG did not show clear signs of epilepsy, this test might improve your diagnosis.
This study checks whether a new type of EEG recording (a brain wave test) can detect seizure activity in people with epilepsy. You may join if you are already scheduled for routine and video EEG testing (and possibly inpatient monitoring) as part of your clinical care, including a brain MRI.
This study tests a wearable device that records brain activity to predict seizures. It might help you manage your epilepsy if you have seizures at least once a day but no more than two in the last three months.
This study looks at whether a special brain-recording procedure for difficult-to-control seizures changes a person’s memory, thinking, or other brain skills afterward. It may help doctors understand risks and plan care for people undergoing the procedure.
