What this trial is about
This study is a non-interventional clinical trial analyzing EEG recordings from people with epilepsy. Participants wear a comfortable EEG headband at home for several weeks. The goal is to study changes in brain activity that occur before seizures (called "pre-ictal patterns") and to test whether a software algorithm can predict seizures in real-time based on these patterns. No treatments or medications are being tested. The study will help evaluate whether seizure prediction is possible using wearable EEG devices and can support the development of future tools that give patients early warnings before seizures occur.
