EPILEPTIC SEIZURE PREDICTION METHOD AND DEVICE CONFIGURED FOR THE PREDICTION OF AN EPILEPTIC SEIZURE

摘要

The invention consists in an epileptic seizure prediction method which uses as input data the difference in electric potential between two non-invasive electrodes 2 arranged on the outer surface of the head of a user 4, said method comprising five sequential steps. The invention also consists of a device 1 configured for predicting epileptic seizures, comprising two non-invasive electrodes 2, an electronic processor, a battery and a wireless transmission component. Said device 1 being able, to calculate in real time the imminence of an epileptic seizure in a user 4. Among the main advantages of the invention are: the real-time calculation of the probability of a seizure; the low response time in the data computation; the detection of the imminence of the seizure with sufficient time in advance; the use of only two non-invasive electrodes; and portability of the device.
