Testing EEG brain wave analysis for children with epilepsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a computer system can help doctors diagnose epilepsy more accurately by analyzing EEG (brain wave) recordings in children. It may be an option if your child has suspected seizures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are under 18 years old
- You have suspected epilepsy or seizures
- You have not taken sedatives or anti-epileptic drugs in the last 3 weeks
- You do not have other serious brain or mental health conditions

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.
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 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 uses a special, detailed brain-mapping technique (called high-resolution electrical source imaging) to see how well it can predict success after epilepsy surgery in children. It aims to help doctors decide which children might benefit most from surgery.
This study tests how well two types of brain monitors (BIS and SEDLINE) work in children with severe, early-onset seizure disorders that also affect development. The goal is to see if these monitors can reliably measure brain activity during medical procedures.
