Concurrent electroencephalography (EEG) and new tripolar EEG (tEEG) will be recorded from adult and pediatric patients. In some patients stereo EEG (sEEG) will also be recorded concurrently.
Sleep problems are more common and more severe in children with epilepsy. The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the effect of a clinic-based and technology-supported sleep intervention for improving sleep and health in children with epilepsy and their parents.
Do you have Epilepsy? Would you like to participate in a study using PhotoBioModulation (PBM)? PBM is being researched for potential benefits in resolving many stress-related brain disorders. It is a non-invasive technique that delivers light energy to cells and tissues that can promote brain stabilization and self-regulation, cell repair, …
The goal of this study is to identify the needs and barriers to accessing and undergoing epilepsy surgery for patients with epilepsy and then to pilot an educational program regarding the social determinants of health and how they can influence surgical rates and epilepsy outcomes. For the first part, patients …
The objective of this study is to determine how visuomotor exploration relates to hippocampal activity along its long axis. The study will investigate the neurophysiological mechanisms in the hippocampus during (1) visual exploration in surgical patients using high-resolution iEEG, and (2) ambulatory exploration in patients implanted with RNS devices.
This observational cross-sectional study aims to assess kidney function in pediatric patients with epilepsy attending Sohag University Hospital. The study evaluates renal biochemical markers, urinalysis, liver functions, abdominal ultrasonography, and the possible renal effects of long-term antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy.
Determine the safety and feasibility of an in-ear device to measure seizures or suspected seizures compared to the standard scalp-based electroencephalogram (EEG). The study team anticipates enrolling five healthy participants through meeting announcements and a research email list serv in the Neurology Dept. Based on the appropriate positive initial test …
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is the most common cause of right-to-left shunt (RLS) in the adult heart, with a prevalence of approximately 25% in the general population. Extensive research has demonstrated an association between PFO and neurological conditions such as cryptogenic stroke, migraine, and sleep apnea syndrome, and it is …
This study will enroll patients with epilepsy who are being evaluated for epilepsy surgery and have electrodes implanted in the brain and/or have electrodes on the scalp. Additionally, this study will recruit normal and online controls (participants who do not have epilepsy). Participants will be asked to participate in 1 …
The purpose of this research is to address the challenges of diagnosing and long-term management of epilepsy in participants whose seizures are not well captured by standard electroencephalography (EEG) tests and who cannot use or are not able to use more standard monitoring techniques. This research will compare the Minder …
