Brain Activity During Sound Testing
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study measures how your brain responds to sounds in a specially designed quiet room. Researchers want to understand how epilepsy affects sound processing, which could help improve treatment in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have epilepsy (if enrolling as a patient) or are healthy with no epilepsy history (if enrolling as a volunteer)
- You are at least 18 years old
- You can hear well enough to participate in sound testing
- You do not have a history of stroke, coma, or other neurological conditions (for healthy volunteers only)
- You do not have diagnosed cognitive impairment or dementia (for healthy volunteers only)

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 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 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 measures a specific brain rhythm (theta waves) using sensors placed on or near the ear canal. It’s mainly looking for healthy adults who can safely complete ear, hearing, and balance checks.
This study measures brain activity in people with epilepsy while doctors place temporary electrodes inside the brain. It may help researchers better understand seizures and how to improve treatment.
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.
