Wearable sensors for epilepsy detection and remote monitoring

Prediction, monitoring, data logging: the Dialog provides it all

As sensor technology becomes less expensive and more widely available, medical devices that provide powerful predictive tools for healthcare are popping up across the HIT market. A great example of this is the Dialog epilepsy detection and remote monitoring system, designed by the Artefact Group. It syncs the power of wearable sensors with the connectivity of smart phones to provide early detection, data logging and remote monitoring, all in one device.

A wearable sensor is used to detect episodes of epilepsy by continuously monitoring hydration, temperature and heart rate. In the event of a seizure, the patient covers the sensor with a ‘big grasp,’ which notifies first responders and their primary caregiver.

In addition to seizure prediction and response, Dialog integrates haptic technology that vibrates to provide users a reminder to take medication. Users can also tap sensors to easily input self-reported data such as mood, which combines with the continuous data stream to create data-rich insights into the patient’s condition.
