About this trial
The goal of this real world data study is to evaluate the clinical utility of remote patient monitoring solution (using Byteflies' EpiCare@Home with reduced EEG montage and other vital signs) with Dravet and LGS patients (ages 3 and up with the exclusion of adults above weight allowing variable titration) to identify an optimal Fenfluramine treatment.
Patients will wear one or more small portable and medically certified measuring devices. Through these devices, electroencephalography (EEG) signals, as well as electro-cardiography (ECG), heart rate, respiration rate, and physical activity are measured, which allows the patient's physician to detect potential seizures, and thus gain more insights.
Participants will be asked to wear the devices three times at home for remote monitoring periods lasting between 3 and 7 consecutive days. The duration of each monitoring period will be determined by the physician based on the type of epilepsy and the frequency of seizures.
