Epilepsy
Conditions
Brief summary
The present study is a 13 months pre-market open-label, prospective study for confirmation of continuous performance and safety of UNEEG EpiSight solution in subjects with uncontrolled epilepsy (indicated for EEG monitoring with the Implant) in which seizures are detectable in an area of the Implant. The surgical procedure, device satisfaction, and effectiveness of the UNEEG EpiSight solution will also be evaluated during the clinical investigation.
Detailed description
The study is a multi-center study with 2-5 European sites in 2-4 countries. Each site will enrol up to 10 subjects, but total enrolment will not exceed 22 to reach 19 completers of 40 days of recording. The total recruitment period is expected to be 6 months and the total study duration is expected to be approximate 22 months (first subject first visit to last subject out).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Patients with uncontrolled epilepsy in which seizures are detectable in an area covered by the implant * Adults (above 18 years) * Is willing and able to use the UNEEG EpiSight solution day and night for the duration of the study * Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent * Subject is able to complete all study-required procedures, assessments and follow-up
Exclusion criteria
* Vulnerable subjects, including severe cognitive impairment precluding informed consent * Cannot or do not have the necessary assistance, to properly operate the system * High risk of surgical complications, such as active systemic infection and haemorrhagic disease * Involved in therapies with medical devices that deliver electrical energy into the area around the implant, such as cochlear implant(s), implantable brain stimulation and external/transcranial brain stimulation * Contraindications to the local anaesthetic used during implantation and explantation
