Validation of a Seizure-Detection Algorithm for Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures
How will this algorithm affect patient monitoring and early intervention?

In a study of 33 patients, the Brain Sentinel seizure detection algorithm detected 20 of 21 confirmed generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) using surface electromyography (sEMG) and video-EEG monitoring. One false-positive detection occurred during the postictal period following a GTCS. This is a positive step for the Brain Sentinel seizure detection algorithm, which aims to facilitate patient monitoring and early intervention. Further studies in large patient groups are needed.
