De-identified UNMH EEG Corpus Database Creation With Fully De-identified Clinical Information

The Creation of a Pilot Database of EEG Recordings and de- Identified Medical Records From Patients Internally Referred Within the UNMH Comprehensive Epilepsy Center

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This proposal outlines the steps required for the creation of a pilot database of EEG recordings and de-identified medical records from patients internally referred within the UNMH Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. The UNMH EEG Corpus would be the first database of its kind. Other public databases contain either patient EEG signals or medical records, but without both kinds of information, it is impossible to relate pre-treatment neurobiomarkers with post-treatment prognosis. The database will also contain information that can improve seizure localization based off of scalp and intracranial EEG, and the requisite data for the creation of algorithms that forecast seizure activity; a development that could ultimately lead to novel responsive neural stimulation procedures that suppress seizures before they begin.

What you commit to

  • Study type: Observational
  • Planned participants: 20000
  • From Oct 2021 to the primary completion date, Jun 2028
  • 1 site in 1 country
  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Age

  • Children under age of 18 years old will be excluded.

Other

  • Mismatched patients between EEG database and EMR

Who the study is looking for

  • We will screen with UNMH EEG database, Nihon Kohden Neuroworkbench first. After meeting all the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we will access the Cerner Powerchart (UNMH EMR) for the rest of the clinical information.
  • 18 years old or older. If the patient's age is over 89, we will aggregated them to age 90 or older so that the patient cannot be identified. Also, all the EEG data will be de-identified and only show the year of the study performed instead of the exact study date to reduce the risk of identification. Of note, we perform over few thousands of EEG studies per year and it will be almost impossible to identify the patient based on the study year.

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
