EpiMonitor is now available in Europe
Following its successful US launch, Empatica is proud to introduce EpiMonitor to Europe — a game-changing, medical-grade solution that revolutionizes epilepsy care, combining seizure detection and alerting with continuous health monitoring capabilities also used in clinical research settings.
EpiMonitor comprises the sophisticated EmbracePlus watch and a companion smartphone app. EpiMonitor’s algorithm continuously analyzes user data, looking for patterns that may resemble a generalized tonic-clonic seizure, and sends automated alerts to caregivers with scientifically proven 98% accuracy. EpiMonitor also offers a detailed sleep, activity, and seizure diary, providing people with epilepsy and their doctors with important information to make empowered decisions on their health journey.

Empatica has been the market leader in providing the world’s only medical watches for people living with epilepsy for nearly a decade. Epilepsy affects 6 million people in Europe, with approximately 15% of those being children. Studies indicate that up to 40% of epilepsy cases are difficult to treat, and a third of people with epilepsy are refractory to current medications. Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is the number one cause of epilepsy-related deaths in people with pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Most SUDEP deaths occur when a generalized tonic-clonic seizure occurs during sleep.
EpiMonitor can be purchased directly from our online store.
