One of our biggest goals at Empatica has always been to provide people and families living with epilepsy with more freedom and peace of mind, and seizure alerts were only the beginning.
We are excited to share that we are soon about to start a project that hasn’t been done before, with the support of our community. Register your interest today to stay updated.
More than 3 million Americans suffer from epilepsy, according to numbers from the Centers for Disease Control. And around one third of people with epilepsy have refractory epilepsy which occurs when medications no longer control seizures. Epileptic seizures are disruptive health events that can have a significant negative impact on quality of life and increase risk of injury and death for people with epilepsy. This study is designed to identify individualized periods of seizure risk for patients with epilepsy, using biomarker viability and patterns in patient lifestyle data as inputs to a forecasting algorithm.
