Abstract

Epilepsy is the commonest serious brain disorder, affecting 1-2% of the general population. Epileptic seizures are usually expressed with a wide range of paroxysmal recurring motor, cognitive, autonomic symptoms and EEG changes. Therefore reliable diagnosis requires state of the art monitoring and communication technologies providing real-time, accurate and continuous brain and body multi-parametric data measurements. The purpose of this paper is to present an adequate mobile system comprising all required sensor types for the everyday life monitoring of patients with epilepsy.
