Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to test Epitel's™ Remote EEG Monitoring System's (REMI™) ability to record electroencephalography (EEG) of seizure events in an ambulatory setting for extended periods (14 - 28 days) in patients presenting with questionable seizure characterization. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Can more seizure events be recorded in fourteen (14) days than can be recorded in three (3) days? • Do treating clinicians find clinical value in extended fourteen (14) - twenty-eight (28) days of EEG? Participants will wear a portable EEG device (REMI) for fourteen (14) to twenty-eight (28) days in their home/community setting.

Epilepsy Seizures Device: Epitel's™ Remote EEG Monitoring System's (REMI™) Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

This is a prospective study to quantify Epitel's™ Remote EEG Monitoring System's (REMI™) ability to record electroencephalography (EEG) of seizure events in an ambulatory setting for extended periods (14 - 28 days). Patients presenting with questionable seizure characterization that are scheduling a conventional at home ambulatory EEG (Amb EEG) and who meet the study inclusion and exclusion criteria will be prescribed a REMI system.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the REMI system is able to record EEG data that clinicians can use to identify ictal events over extended periods, and that extended clinical EEG data is valuable in the diagnosis and treatment of seizure related symptoms.

Intervention Details:
  • Device: Epitel's™ Remote EEG Monitoring System's (REMI™)
    Ambulatory electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring


Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Ictal Events Identified in fourteen (14) days. [ Time Frame: Fourteen (14) days ]
    Epileptiform seizure activity as identified by three independent board-certified epileptologists assessing data collected by REMI. The number of seizures identified in the first three days will be compared to the number of seizures identified during days one (1) to fourteen (14).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Extended Use [ Time Frame: Twenty-eight (28) days ]
    Epileptiform seizure activity as identified by three independent board-certified epileptologists assessing data collected by REMI. The number of seizures identified in the first fourteen (14) days will be compared to the number of seizures identified during all twenty-eight (28) days.
