Epi-collect: Data Collection During Video EEG Monitoring and at Patient's Home
Epilepsy is a group of neurological disorders characterized by propensity for spontaneous
 epileptic seizures. Epileptic seizures are the result of excessive and abnormal nerve cell
 activity in the brain. About 0.7-1% of the world population suffers from seizures. The most
 common treatment is based on seizure medications that enables about 2/3 of the patients to
 control their seizures. However, about 20 million patients worldwide, suffer from
 unpredictable seizures without remedy, and are resistant to medication.

 In this study EEG and other physiologic signals are collected using wearable sensors, from
 Epilepsy patients who are at risk of experiencing seizures. The collected signals will be
 used for developing algorithms that may identify pre-seizure and seizure related periods.
