Abstract:
A method and apparatus for preventing or terminating seizures, by stimulating a brain with at least two implanted electrodes, each implanted in a different one of at least two regions of the brain, with a frequency to emulate and/or disrupt neuronal synchrony. Upon detecting a potential or actual seizure occurrence, the frequency is electrically applied to the brain upon the detection to preempt or terminate the potential or actual seizure occurrence.
