Details
The Epi-Care technology has been tested in independent scientific studies published in the journal Epilepsia.
The Epi-Care free epilepsy alarm was clinically tested at the Danish Epilepsy Hospital Filadelfia, the Danish Rigshospital and the Epilepsy Center Bethel in Bielefeld. Based on the clinical tests, physicians determined that the Epi-Care alarm is an important tool for people with tonic-clonic seizures.
Method:
The wireless motion sensor, which is worn on the wrist and detects generalized tonic-clonic seizures, has been tested with adults and teenagers. 73 people participated in the investigation. They wore Epi-Care wristbands and were watched simultaneously by video EEG. During the experiment, which lasted an average of three days, they were constantly monitored and the brain's electrical signals measured. Since Epi-Care free can only register tonic-clonic seizures, people with other types of epilepsy have been excluded from testing.
Results:
The test provided two types of data: information from the EEG and information from Epi-Care free. The analysis and comparison of the data showed that 20 people suffered 39 generalized tonic-clonic epileptic seizures
-
Epi-Care free has detected 35 out of 38 seizures.
-
In two cases, nurses held people's arms during the seizure, so Epi-Care did not function normally.
-
Epi-Care has not registered the seizures in the last two cases.
