A clinical evaluation of a novel algorithm in the reliable detection of epileptic seizures

Epilepsy is defined as at least two unprovoked (or reflex) seizures occurring at least 24 h apart [1]. The incidence of epilepsy in the UK is estimated at 50 per 100,000 per year [2]. One person in 50 will develop epilepsy at some time in their lives with approximately 87 people being given the diagnosis of epilepsy each day. Over 500,000 people in the UK have epilepsy [3].
