Reports from M.E. Colpan et al highlight recent research in epilepsy
November 19th, 2007
According to recent research from the United States, "A responsive electrical brain stimulation system using control feedback was investigated for the treatment of seizures A proportional feedback stimulation system was designed. Penicillin-induced episodic seizures were created in rat primary motor cortex." "Both intracranial (proximal to seizure focus) and extracranial EEGs were monitored. Current stimulation was applied at the seizure focus by using the intracranial EEG as the current-stimulus template. Different gains (H) for determining feedback stimulus amplitudes were tested The effect of feedback stimulation on seizures was initially assessed by measuring change...
