Sleep and memory study in epilepsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how sleep and memory work together in people with epilepsy. You will stay in the hospital for at least 4 days with a video EEG to record your brain activity while you sleep and complete memory tasks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have epilepsy (any type)
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You will be in the hospital for at least 4 days for a video EEG
- You do not have major thinking problems (other than memory issues)
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or currently in labor

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 brain waves to learn how memory works. It may help people with epilepsy who have special brain implants, or healthy volunteers.
This study places electrodes in the brain to learn how seizures spread and how memory works. It may help people with temporal lobe epilepsy understand their condition better and improve future treatments.
This trial tests whether a memory-based exercise and planned training program can improve quality of life for people with epilepsy. You would use a mobile phone to do memory exercises and follow instructions.
This early research study tests whether a medicine can change the brain’s electrical “rhythms” while people do memory-related tasks. It may help researchers understand how brain timing affects memory in people who are already being evaluated with specialized brain electrode monitoring.
