Welcome
Dear colleagues,
It is a pleasure to welcome you to the 1st International congress on mobile health devices and seizure detection in epilepsy in Copenhagen Denmark from July 7 - 8, 2017.
Recent advances in signal analysis and information technology have triggered a boom in the field of mobile health, with important applications to the management of patients with epilepsy, including seizure detection.
The goal of the colloquium is to disseminate, facilitate and accelerate progress in the development of mobile health solutions and seizure detection devices for patients with epilepsy.
The workshop will enhance information-exchange among researchers, high-tech companies, medical organizations and patients´ organizations facilitating networking, development of joint projects and collaborations in this quickly developing field.
In addition, interactive, educational hands-on sessions will contribute to the dissemination of novel technologies.
Main topics:
• Seizure-detection: which modalities can be implemented in mobile devices?
• Seizure-detection: published evidence so far.
• How to couple seizure-detection with therapeutic interventions.
• SUDEP prevention through mobile health.
• Seizure diaries based on automated seizure detection.
• Telemedicine in epilepsy (EEG, home-video-EEG monitoring, follow-up meetings, second opinion sessions)
• From research and development to implementation in practice: what are the needs of the patients and healthcare providers?
We wish you all very welcome to Copenhagen!
