Patent attributes
A system and method for detecting and analyzing the characteristics of seizures, such as tonic-clonic seizures, comprising at least one processor unit capable of recording a signal from a sensor unit, one or more analysis modules configured to analyze the recorded signal, one or more evaluation modules configured to evaluate the output signals from the analysis modules. A first analysis module is configured to analyze the recorded signal within a first frequency band, and a second analysis module is configured to analyze the recorded signal within a second frequency band, and the evaluation module is configured to calculate the ratio between the two output signals from the analysis modules. The system includes a seizure detection module configured to detect a seizure and a time-point extraction module configured to determine at least one starting point and an end point of the seizure.
