Key Differentiators at Amrita Hospitals in kochi

• Epilepsy is a common disease that afflicts nearly 60 million people worldwide of which 6 million (10%) reside in India. Apart from being a physical disease, epilepsy has a strong mental and social implication. This disease adversely affects women with pregnancy and is an important contributor of learning disability in children. The incidence of divorce among epilepsy patients is on the rise. The unpredictability of epileptic attack leaves the patients helpless and most of the time at the mercy of others.
• Amrita Hospitals for Epilepsy (AACE), over 290 surgeries have been performed using invasive monitoring, showcasing the center's commitment to addressing complex epilepsy cases.
• Facilities and expertise in awake surgery to maximize the successful outcomes in brain surgeries (more than 100 awake surgeries successfully completed to date)
•  
• Advanced Signal analysis
• Stereo-EEG analysis with Epileptogenicity Rank (ER) for epilepsy patients. ER is an improved way to measure how likely different parts of the brain are to cause seizures.
• High frequency oscillation analysis
• High-frequency oscillations (HFOs) are brainwave patterns that occur during complex activities like language processing, planning movements, and forming memories. Interestingly, parts of the brain involved in epilepsy, known as the epileptogenic network, tend to produce these HFOs at higher rates, but in a way that's not typical, known as 'pathological HFOs'. At our center, we focus on studying these HFOs, particularly in two specific ranges: Ripples (80-250Hz) and Fast Ripples (250-600 Hz). By analyzing these, we can determine how often HFOs occur in specific brain regions. This information is crucial because it helps us predict the area of the brain where epilepsy originates, known as the epileptogenic zone. This analysis is a key part of understanding and treating epilepsy more effectively.
