We’re excited to announce that, thanks to new regulatory milestones, EpiMonitor is now available in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, bringing advanced epilepsy monitoring to more people around the world.
EpiMonitor is:
- Listed in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG ref: 524726)
- Licensed by Health Canada (Medical Device License #115081)
These milestones reflect our commitment to meeting rigorous standards for safety, quality, and performance in each market we serve.
A new standard in epilepsy monitoring
Built as a complete ecosystem, EpiMonitor includes a wearable device and a companion app that work together to provide continuous monitoring, meaningful insights on seizure, sleep and activity patterns, and call for help when it’s needed most.
EpiMonitor is built on a foundation of scientific rigor and real-world validation: a fully medical-grade, wrist-worn epilepsy monitoring system. Unlike solutions that rely on consumer smartwatches or standalone apps, EpiMonitor combines a purpose-built medical-grade wearable with a companion app to detect possible generalized tonic-clonic seizures and monitor sleep and activity patterns.
Designed for everyday life
Living with epilepsy isn’t just about managing seizures; it’s about understanding patterns, triggers, and overall well-being. EpiMonitor supports this with features that fit seamlessly into daily life:
- Up to 7 days of battery life, reducing interruptions and providing continuous peace of mind
- Automated seizure diary, helping track events throughout the day, with the option to manually add other seizure types or events
- Daily sleep and activity monitoring, providing a more complete picture of health
- Adjustable sensing precision, to help reduce false alarms when surrounded by loved ones
By combining these insights, EpiMonitor empowers users and caregivers to make more informed decisions over time.
Powered by proven technology
EpiMonitor is powered by the EmbracePlus wearable, a device trusted by top healthcare and research institutions worldwide.
For over a decade, Empatica has worked on developing technology that provides safety and peace of mind for people living with epilepsy. By expanding to new regions, we are making our most advanced epilepsy monitoring solution accessible to thousands more individuals, families, and caregivers.
EpiMonitor is available for purchase through our online store and via our Australian distributor, Seizure Alert Australia.
We do not guarantee that EpiMonitor will detect every single seizure and deliver alerts accordingly. It is not meant to substitute your current seizure monitoring practices, but rather to serve as a supplement in expediting first-response time.
