Does the iVEAcare neurostimulator reduce seizure frequency and severity in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy? Does the iVEAcare neurostimulator improve quality of life in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy?\n\nAll participants will be implanted with an iVEAcare neurostimulator, and researchers will look at whether any medical problems are caused by the implant procedure or device, and how stimulation changes seizure frequency and severity and participant quality of life compared to when the participant enrolled.\n\nParticipants will:\n\nBe implanted with an iVEAcare device. Visit the clinic 1-month, 3-months, 6-months, 1-year, 18-months and then annually through 5 years where they will be asked to answer questionnaires about their seizures and quality of life.\n\nKeep a diary of the number of seizures they have each day.",[78],"Drug Resistant Epilepsy","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-07-09",{"date":82,"type":83},"2026-07-13","ACTUAL",{"date":85,"type":72},"2026-06",{"date":87,"type":72},"2032-06",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
