Optimal Stimulation Parameters to Disrupt Epileptiform Activity
Optimal Stimulation Parameters for Spike-ripple Disruption in Patients Undergoing Invasive Monitoring
Massachusetts General Hospital
30 participants
Jun 13, 2023
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Open-loop electrical stimulation has been found to reduce spike activity and seizures, but determining the optimal parameters to achieve these effects requires a brute force trial-and-error approach that relies on subjective physician discretion. We will compare the performance of stimulation parameters identified in rodent models to the recommended parameters for neuromodulation used in clinical practice.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria1
- \- Undergoing intracranial EEG investigation at Massachusetts General Hospital during presurgical epilepsy evaluation
