Safety study of ear-worn seizure monitor
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 69 years old.

- You have no major health conditions (like heart disease, uncontrolled diabetes, etc.).
- You are not allergic to silver.
- You have not had an ear infection in the last month.

This study looks at how your brain becomes aware of things—like sounds and images—by measuring pupil size and brain activity. Healthy people may have an MRI; epilepsy patients with special brain electrodes already implanted can also join a part of the study.
This study tests a wearable ear device that may help detect seizures during your stay in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit. It aims to see if the device can work alongside standard monitoring to improve seizure detection.
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 tests how well a specific brain-recording device works during a procedure used to map seizure origins in people with drug-resistant, disabling focal epilepsy. It may help doctors plan treatment by improving how well they can localize the seizure focus before possible surgery.
This study is testing a wearable EEG device that you can use at home for up to 30 days. It records brain activity to help doctors better understand your seizures. The goal is to see if this longer monitoring can capture more seizure events than standard short-term EEG tests.
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.
