Long-term follow-up of the Minder implanted EEG system for epilepsy care
Official title: A Prospective Long-Term Follow-Up Study to Evaluate the Use of the Minder Device to Aid in Treatment After Actionable Event Identification in Patients Diagnosed With Epilepsy.
Run by Epiminder America, Inc. · NCT07110454 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This follow-up will see if long-term use of the implanted Minder sub‑scalp EEG system helps doctors manage care for people with epilepsy whose seizures are not well captured by standard EEGs.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are people who enrolled in the DETECT program, received the implanted Minder device, completed DETECT by having an actionable event or the 6‑month visit, and still have the device implanted.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who never received the Minder implant, who require MRI or other contraindicated procedures, or whose seizures are already well captured and controlled with standard monitoring are unlikely to benefit from this follow‑up.

What this trial studies
This is an observational long‑term follow‑up of participants who previously received the implanted Minder sub‑scalp EEG device in the DETECT program. The study collects periodic information on general wellbeing, healthcare use, and participants' experience using Minder data after an actionable event or completion of the 6‑month DETECT visit. Participants remain under the care of their treating physicians while study staff document how Minder data are used in routine clinical decision‑making. The Minder System has FDA De Novo classification and is being followed in real‑world settings at participating centers.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, long‑term Minder monitoring could help clinicians detect events missed by standard EEG and guide treatment changes that reduce seizures and improve quality of life.
How similar studies have gone: Prior data from the DETECT program supported FDA De Novo clearance of the Minder system, but long‑term outpatient outcomes and real‑world use patterns are less well characterized.
