Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of our project is to develop an epileptic seizure detection algorithm based on the the continuous analysis of the Electrocardiogram

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In a first step, the team will build a multi-parametric algorithm on existing records issued from the Epilepsy Monitoring Units. Each selected record will be analyzed by EMU medical team in order to detect seizure on the EEG. The algorithm will adapt in order to obtain the best sensitivity and specificity regarding seizure detection.

in a second step,algorithm will validate on a cohort of other recordings in patients with epilepsy
