Remote Tracking of Epilepsy Patients

NCT01130649 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2017-05-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators propose a novel method for tracking the seizure frequency, side effect burden, and medication compliance for patients with epilepsy. The investigators intend to utilize a table-top device currently for tracking other chronic disease to collect remote data from epilepsy patients. The hypothesis is that the use of this device will lead to better longterm treatment outcomes than the standard outpatient mechanism of following patients longitudinally.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

HealthBuddy

Noninvasive device for remotely reporting health information. The device does nothing to change the health of the patient, but transmits health data that is entered by the patient directly to the physician's office. Patients will enter data on seizure frequency, medication compliance, and side effects.
