Functional Brain Mapping for Patients With Epilepsy
We aim to determine the clinical utility of 'dynamic tractography': a novel method for visualizing electrical neural transfers that incorporates the underlying white matter tracts and supporting linguistic processing. We will also determine how well objective electrophysiology biomarkers will improve the prediction of language outcomes following epilepsy surgery. This project …
Hybrid Micro-macro Electrodes in Patients With Epilepsy
The aim of the MicroEPI study is to know whether it is possible to use safely a medical device (a micro-electrode) that allows recording the activity of neurons in the human brain. Patients who suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy and who are candidates to epilepsy surgery to alleviate their condition sometimes …
Brain Activity in Epilepsy
Prospective interventional study with implantation of micro-electrodes to study the brain networks in epilepsy at high spatiotemporal resolution.
Telephone-Based Support Programs for People With Epilepsy
This is a two-arm randomized controlled trial to compare telephone-based depression self-management (UPLIFT) to telephone-based support groups (BOOST). A sample of 120 Englishand Spanish-speaking people with epilepsy (PWE) with elevated depressive symptoms will be enrolled. Both interventions are 8-week programs delivered in one-hour weekly sessions to groups of about 6 …
Intracerebral Electrical Stimulation and the Optimisation of Presurgical Planning in Drug-refractory Partial Epilepsy
Patients with drug-refractory epilepsy sometimes need to be implanted with intracerebral electrodes in order to identify their seizure onset zone. During this procedure, direct electrical brain stimulations represent a standard clinical practice to assess seizure sensitivity and for functional mapping. This study aims at assessing if extending the range of …
Methylphenidate for the Treatment of Epilepsy-related Cognitive Deficits
Methylphenidate (MPH) is a stimulant, FDA-approved for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It is unknown, however, if stimulants would be of benefit for memory and thinking problems due to epilepsy. In this study, participants will be assigned randomly (i.e., by flip of a coin), to a group …
Caracterization of the Combined Alterations in Respiration and AROUSal in Patients with Drug-resistant EpiLepsy
30% of patients with epilepsy suffer from drug-resistant seizures and are at risk of epilepsy-related complications, from cognitive dysfunctions to premature mortality. Both seizures and their complications are modulated by patients' vigilance states, with a tight and bi-directional interplay between sleep and epilepsy. Several epilepsy complications are associated with sleep, …
Risk Prevention Program and Therapeutic Patient Education Program of Patients With Uncontrolled Epilepsy
Pilot, controled, randomized study aiming to evaluate a plan for the prevention of risks related to epilepsy, 3 months after the last therapeutic patient education session. Two groups of patients will be compared: group "intervention" (consultation with the neurologist then a psychologist followed by a session dedicated to risk prevention …
Microelectrode Recordings From the Vagus Nerve in Awake Humans
This Anchillary project uses a refined technique of ultrasound-guided microneurography of the human cervical vagus nerve, an approach developed by Professor Vaughan Macefield and used safely to-date in 44 prior study participants. The overall goal of this project is to build upon prior data obtained using this approach by undertaking …
Investigation of Blood-Brain-Barrier Breakdown Using Manganese Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Drug-Resistant Epilepsy
Background The blood-brain barrier separates the brain from the rest of the body. Epilepsy is a neurological disease that causes seizures. It can affect this barrier. Researchers think a contrast agent called mangafodipir might be better able to show areas of the brain that epilepsy affects. Objective To see if …
