Diagnosing Epilepsy To EffeCT Change
A Prospective Study to Evaluate the Use of the Minder Device to Aid in Developing a Treatment Plan After Inconclusive Prolonged EEG in Patients With Epilepsy
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 26 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this research is to address the challenges of diagnosing and long-term management of epilepsy in participants whose seizures are not well captured by standard electroencephalography (EEG) tests and who cannot use or are not able to use more standard monitoring techniques. This research will compare the Minder System to standard of care in providing reliable seizure data. The Minder System was granted De Novo classification by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is not investigational. Participants will consent to join the study and be implanted with the Minder device; or consent to join the study and continue with their Standard of Care (SOC) as a control group. Participants chose to be implanted with the Minder device will have the device implanted under their scalp. After implantation, participants will be randomly assigned to a group where their treating physician will have access to the EEG data collected by the Minder System or a group where their treating physician does not have access to the EEG data collected by the Minder System. Participants receiving the Minder System will not know which group they are in (blinded) until the study ends. All participants will continue to be followed by their treating physician and undergo assessments and visits until enough information is available to determine a treatment plan or the 6-month follow-up visit.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Participant needs treatments or assessments that are not indicated with the Minder System like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Electro-Convulsive Therapy (ECT), lithrotripsy, and diathermy
- Participant cannot have surgery to have the device implanted
Other illness
- Epilepsy surgery within the past 6 months
Other
- Active Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) or Responsive Neurostimulator System (RNS)
Who the study is looking for
- Diagnosis of focal and/or generalized epilepsy.
- Drug-resistant
- At least an average of 1 seizure within the past 3 months
- Participant completed a multi-day EEG assessment that was inconclusive, and is unchanged since the last EEG monitoring.
