Summary

The RNS® System LTT study is designed to assess the ongoing safety and to evaluate the long-term efficacy of the RNS® System as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures in individuals 18 years of age or older with partial onset seizures that are refractory to two or more antiepileptic medications. Candidates will continue to receive their epilepsy medications while participating in the trial.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

RNS® System

The previously implanted RNS® System is programmed to provide responsive stimulation. Upon detecting electrographic patterns, previously identified by the neurologist or neurosurgeon as abnormal, the Neurostimulator provides brief pulses of electrical stimulation through the Leads to interrupt those patterns. Patients with epilepsy treated with responsive direct-brain stimulation with the RNS System typically receive less than 6 minutes of stimulation a day.
