Trial summary

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the use of EEG in the management and follow-up of neuropsychiatric disorders. Secondary objectives are therefore better understanding of the pathological activations in neural network during neuropsychiatric disorders, their clinical evolution and response to therapies.

Read the detailed description

Patients are having EEG recordings as a routine part of their clinical evaluation and diagnosis. EEG recording is harmless, has no side effects, any radiation or any mechanical or electrical influence. It is of short duration and may be done in the EEG institute or the patient's room.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. percentage of fitting (0-100%) of EEG pattern to a previously identified electrophysiological "key"

    The study will decode an EEG-based "key" (or electrophysiological pattern) for specific effect (such as the use of anti-epileptic agent or a certain condition) by comparing EEG before and after the use of this agent. For each patient the statistical fitting of the recorded EEG to the key will be evaluated by percentage (0-100%), describing fitting of the individual patient's EEG to the identified key.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EEG recording in people with Personality Disorder and Depression, run by Hadassah Medical Organization at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact shahar arzy, MD PhD (shahar.arzy@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

percentage of fitting (0-100%) of EEG pattern to a previously identified electrophysiological "key" (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01476228, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Nov 2011.
