Sleep-Sensitive Seizure Risk Assessment With Wearable EEGs

Summary

Epilepsy, a prevalent neurological disorder, affects 40% of patients with uncontrolled seizures despite medications. Sleep disturbance exacerbates epilepsy, and vice versa, but existing literature suffers from limitations. Studies conducted in hospital settings provide only brief observation periods and fail to capture the natural sleep environment. Wearable technology offers a promising solution, providing a nuanced understanding of the relationship between seizures and sleep. The Dreem headban
