medically intractable epileptic seizure

medically intractable epileptic seizure affects brain function in measurable ways that QEEG brain mapping can identify. At Peak Brain Institute, we use quantitative EEG to assess individual patterns related to medically intractable epileptic seizure, then design personalized neurofeedback protocols targeting those specific signatures.

Nonlinear analysis in treatment of intractable epilepsy with EEG biofeedback

Zhao, Longlian, Liang, Zuoqing, Hu, Guangshu, Wu, Wenqing (2005)

About 25% epilepsy patients are suffering from medically intractable epileptic seizure. Many studies have shown that electroencephalogram (EEG) biofeedback therapy has the exciting potential for seizure control. In this paper, five patients with intractable epilepsy were trained to increase the production of sensorimotor (12 15 Hz) activity and decrease the production of slow theta (4 7 Hz) activity. Nonlinear analysis are proposed to evaluate the effect of biofeedback training. In all the five patients, the complexity and approximate entropy of EEG increased significantly (P<0.05) after (about 1-month) the biofeedback treatment
