When the EpiMonitor algorithm detects unusual patterns that may be associated with generalized tonic-clonic seizures lasting longer than 20 seconds, it will communicate with the companion EpiMonitor App installed on the user’s dedicated smartphone to alert active caregivers with a phone call and a text message. It is designed to expedite assistance when a seizure occurs.
For the EpiMonitor system to function as designed, watch wearers are required to have a compatible smartphone with Bluetooth and internet connectivity. The phone needs to be kept within 15 feet of the EmbracePlus watch for alerts to be sent.
The EpiMonitor system is FDA-cleared for adults and children ages 6 and up. Use in children younger than 6 should be evaluated by a clinician on a case-by-case basis.
EpiMonitor is available for purchase on our Online Store.
The EpiMonitor algorithm is designed to detect unusual patterns associated with generalized tonic-clonic seizures lasting 20 seconds or longer. It is not designed to detect seizures that do not generate movements such as complex partial seizures, absence seizures or non-convulsive seizures. However, you can manually add other types of seizures to the EpiMonitor App to keep track of all seizure events.
EpiMonitor is a medical product and customers who purchase and use it within the US territories will be required to upload a valid prescription issued by a US doctor or healthcare practitioner before we can ship the device to them.
