INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The main goal of this project is to study the mechanisms of epileptic activities using intracranial macro and micro electrodes in epileptic patients undergoing pre-surgical investigation. The recordings will also be used to study physiological mechanisms like sleep and different cognitive functions.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Patients with focal drug-resistant epilepsy
- Patients who undergo a presurgical evaluation with intracranial electrodes in the videoEEG unit of the Neurology department at the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital.
- Patients who have been informed and provided written informed consent to take part in the study
Exclusion Criteria4
- Contraindication for an intracranial investigation (with macro-electrodes) : intercurrent infectious syndrome, decompensated associated pathology (cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic), patient with increased risk of infection (ex: under immunosuppressive therapy)
- Pregnant or parturient woman
- Breastfeeding woman
- Minor person or legally protected adult (tutelage, legal guardianship, maintenance of justice)
