Measure
GTEN 100
All patients will receive treatment according to the protocol with the GTEN 100 device, pulsed only. GTEN 100: Stimulation will be focused on the seizure generating cortex. All patients enrolled in the study will have a pre-treatment baseline evaluation period. During this time, the patient (and/or family) will maintain the seizure diary that simply tracks the number of seizure the patient experiences each day. During this baseline period, two two-hour EEG recordings (to be completed on 2 separate days) will be acquired. This baseline EEG data will be used to establish baseline inter-ictal spike rate as well as classification of the inter-ictal spikes used to localize seizure onset zone. Using the localization information, patients will be treated with the device for five concurrent days.

Baseline Characteristics

This study was running at the time of acquisition by Philips. The study execution was out of compliance from the regulations and GCP. There was no protocol, no statistical analysis plan, no case report forms and no data was formally collected therefore, no statistical analysis was performed. Philips terminated the study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured at baseline. treatment and at the 9 month followup visit

Population: This study was running at the time of acquisition by Philips. The study execution was out of compliance from the regulations and GCP. There was no protocol, no statistical analysis plan, no case report forms and no data was monitored or collected therefore, no statistical analysis was performed. Philips terminated the study.

• With assessments of spike rates after treatment session and at visits at weeks 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24, the duration of any suppression in spike rate can be explored. All spike rates (baseline, treatment, and follow-up) will also be classified in relation to waking or sleep stage (N1, N2, N3).
