Abstract

This study aims to illustrate how and when the heart rate changes along with epileptic seizures. The data was collected by using a bracelet (NightWatch), which contains a photoplethysmography sensor and an accelerometer sensor. This study shows that heart rate (HR) changes could occur around 100 seconds before a tonic-clonic seizure showed motion features, and reaches the highest HR when the epileptic motions could be detected by the NW.
