| ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: | NCT00497835 |
Purpose
An accelerometer with transmitting ability is worn on the wrist. Data of movements during seizures will be analyzed to upgrade algorhithm that will identify seizures.

| Study Type: | Observational |
| Study Design: | Screening, Cross-Sectional, Defined Population, Prospective Study |
| Official Title: | Epilepsy Alert Device - Epilert Performance |
| Estimated Enrollment: | 50 |
| Study Start Date: | October 2007 |
| Estimated Study Completion Date: | December 2008 |
Patients undergoing Video-EEG telemetry will wear movement sensor on their wrist. The sensor will transmitt continuous data to a laptop. Seizures' data (tonic or clonic) will be analyzed and transformed into an algorhihm (up-graded existing preliminary algorhithm).
In the second phase the algorhythm will need to identify seizure events within one minute of the onset.
Both specifity ("false positive") and sensitivity ("false negative) will be than calculated.
