Validation of a Seizure Monitoring System

St Vincent's Hospital Melbourne

Status: Completed

Conditions: Epilepsy

Treatments: Device: Medtronic LINQ Device

Study type: Observational

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT03465189

HREC/18/SVHM/50

Details and patient eligibility

About

The investigators aim to determine the feasibility of using the Medtronic LINQ device for epilepsy diagnosis, monitoring and management. The feasibility will be determined by comparing EEG signals from the LINQ system to the gold standard clinical recordings. If seizures can be identified using the LINQ device with the same level of accuracy as adjacent scalp EEG recording electrodes, then the LINQ will be deemed feasible.
