Low-power implantable seizure detection processor

Abstract

The detection processor is a part of an implantable integrated device used for detection of an electrographic seizure onset. The system is supposed to acquire the neural signals from 1024 electrodes implanted in the brain tissues, amplify the acquired signals, and then process them using the seizure detection processor to detect the occurrence of a seizure. Based on the decision of the processor, a stimulation signal can be applied to a number of the implanted electrodes to block the seizure progression.
