New scalp implant may unlock better epilepsy care for hard-to-diagnose patients
NCT ID NCT07110337
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 16, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a device called the Minder, implanted under the scalp, can help doctors make better treatment plans for people with epilepsy whose standard brain wave tests (EEG) are not clear. About 210 adults with drug-resistant epilepsy will either get the Minder device or continue with usual care. The goal is to see if the device provides useful information that leads to a clear treatment decision faster.
