Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to gather ECG data during normal activity, exercise, and sleep from normal subjects with or without well-controlled epilepsy. This normal subject data will serve as "true negative" (i.e., no seizure occurring) challenge data for testing cardiac based seizure detection algorithms. Read more about this study
