Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Intracranial macro-microelectrode recording

Intracranial macro-microelectrode recording: Additionnally to clinical macroelectrodes, Benkhe-Fried depth macro-microelectrodes will be implanted and recorded during the pre-surgical investigation of epileptic patients

Study summary

The main goal of this project is to study the mechanisms of epileptic activities using intracranial macro and micro electrodes in epileptic patients undergoing pre-surgical investigation.

The recordings will also be used to study physiological mechanisms like sleep and different cognitive functions.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with focal drug-resistant epilepsy * Patients who undergo a presurgical evaluation with intracranial electrodes in the videoEEG unit of the Neurology department at the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital. * Patients who have been informed and provided written informed consent to take part in the study Exclusion Criteria: * Contraindication for an intracranial investigation (with macro-electrodes) : intercurrent infectious syndrome, decompensated associated pathology (cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic), patient with increased risk of infection (ex: under immunosuppressive therapy) * Pregnant or parturient woman * Breastfeeding woman * Minor person or legally protected adult (tutelage, legal guardianship, maintenance of justice)

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Identification of single unit changes at seizure emergence — Whole duration of the clinical inverstigation, until 4 weeks
    In order to identify biomarkers of epileptic seizures we will study single neuron activities (firing rate) using spike sorting at different time periods (before, during and after seizures and during interictal periods) We expect to observe significant changes in firing rate across the different time periods.
  • Identification of local field potential (LFP) changes at seizure emergence — Whole duration of the clinical inverstigation, until 4 weeks
    In order to identify biomarkers of epileptic seizures we will study LFP power using time frequency analysis at different time periods (before, during and after seizures and during interictal periods) We expect to observe significant changes in LFP power across the different time periods.
