Brain scans could help Fine-Tune seizure control device

NCT ID NCT04693221

Summary

This study is testing whether using a specific brain wave measurement from a scalp EEG can help doctors find the best settings for a vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) device. The VNS is already implanted in people with epilepsy that doesn't respond well to medication. Researchers want to see if adjusting the device based on this brain wave pattern leads to better seizure control compared to using standard settings. The study involves 140 participants who have had the VNS device for less than six months.
