New scoring system may spare epilepsy patients from invasive brain surgery
NCT ID NCT06138808
First seen Feb 16, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This study is testing a new scoring system called the 5-SENSE score to see if it can accurately predict where seizures start in the brain for people with hard-to-treat epilepsy. The goal is to help doctors decide who truly needs an invasive test called SEEG, which involves placing electrodes directly into the brain. About 400 participants will be enrolled to see how well the score works, potentially sparing some patients from this risky procedure.
