Brain electrode trial seeks hidden epilepsy clues
NCT ID NCT02491476
Summary
This study tested a new type of tiny brain electrode to see if it could reliably record very fast brain signals called 'fast ripples' in people with hard-to-treat epilepsy. Researchers wanted to know if these signals could help pinpoint the exact brain area causing seizures, which might improve future surgical planning. The study involved 54 patients who were already scheduled for a standard brain mapping procedure.
