Wireless Wrist Sensor for GTCS Detection by Bruno Valentini is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a wireless wrist accelerometer for detecting generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) in 73 patients across three centers. The device demonstrated a high sensitivity of 91% in detecting seizures, with a low false alarm rate of 0.2 per day, suggesting its potential as a reliable tool for monitoring patients at risk of GTCS. The findings indicate that the accelerometer could significantly aid in preventing injuries and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) by pr
