2010 At-Home Seizure Detection
Team Members: Mihir Bawal, Aaron Ho, Gaber Saleh, Jasper Shau
Capstone Client: John Hixson, M.D , UCSF, Asst Prof of Clinical Neurology
Purpose/Goal:
Currently, there are no FDA approved devices for seizure detection. Children suffering from epilepsy require 24 hour monitoring. The impact is the disease not only affects the patient, but the entire family as well. The team designed an easy to use, at-home child seizure detection device for use during periods of sleep.
