Epileptic Seizure Detetion by use of Accelerometer, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ahmadian, Mohammad-Taghi (Supervisor)
Abstract
After Alzheimer and brain attack, the most common neurological disorder is epilepsy, which often involves seizures. In two-thirds of patients with epilepsy, the seizures can be controlled by antiepileptic drugs, and about 8% of patients can use epilepsy surgery; but unfortunately there is no acceptable treatment for the other 25% of these patients. Therefore preventing from epilepsy losses is a very important topic.
The gold standard for the diagnosis of the epilepsy is EEG monitoring. In this method, electrodes are placed on the scalp. Electrodes are uncomfortable to wear, and cause invasion to the patient, hence long-term monitoring and home monitoring is not feasible. In some...
