Cyberphysical Systems for Epilepsy and Related Brain Disorders : Multi-parametric Monitoring and Analysis for Diagnosis and Optimal Disease Management

Introduction to ARMOR Project -- Introduction to Epilepsy and Related Brain Disorders -- Part I Epilepsy Medical Background -- Sleep Features and Underlying Mechanisms Related to Epilepsy and Its Long Term Monitoring -- Source-estimation from Non-invasive Recordings of Brain Electrical Activity in Sleep and Epilepsy -- Current Practices in Epilepsy Monitoring; Future Prospects and the ARMOR Challenge -- Data Management Processes -- System Architecture.;This book introduces a new cyberphysical system that combines clinical and basic neuroscience research with advanced data analysis and medical management tools for developing novel applications for the management of epilepsy. The authors describe the algorithms and architectures needed to provide ambulatory, diagnostic and long-term monitoring services, through multi parametric data collection. Readers will see how to achieve in-hospital quality standards, addressing conventional "routine" clinic-based service purposes, at reduced cost, enhanced capability, and increased geographical availability. The cyberphysical system described in this book is flexible, can be optimized for each patient, and is demonstrated in several case studies.
