Caring for someone with epilepsy can be a challenging job. It takes a lot of time and energy and it doesn’t allow for holidays or downtime.The Epliepsy bed sensor is a safe and effective way of monitoring a person with seizures. It alerts the carer to a fit so they can act quickly to prevent it happening again.There are many different types of seizure monitors on the market. They all detect unusual movements and raise an alarm or connect to a smartphone. They can help to keep people who are prone to seizures safe in the bedroom, but they cannot prevent them from occurring in the first place.Seizure monitors are a new area of technology that is constantly developing and research is being done to find out more about how they work. emfit seizure monitor It is important that appropriate communication is kept open between doctors and patients about the benefits of the technology as well as the risks of using it.Some studies have shown that devices can pick up generalized tonic-clonic (GTC) seizures but the sensitivity and false alarm rate are not as high as expected. These issues could be influenced by device design, algorithm and patient characteristics. The results of some studies are based on data from only a few centres which could add to the risk of bias. Also, there is no clear evidence that the devices can prevent sudden and unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Therefore, they are not recommended for use at present.
