A wearable seizure detection and prediction device (EarSD) is worn by patients with epileptic seizures. In this study, the goal is to validate the accuracy of a newly developed portable seizure detection device by examining if the Ear-SD device can (1) provide more comfort, (2) be unobtrusive to the subject during daily activities, and (3) be able to provide additional insight on a patients' seizure control.
