Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- patients aged 18-70 yo admitted for monitoring and capturing seizures at the EMU with scalp electrodes and for seizure localization with implantation of intracranial electrodes.
Exclusion
- patients who are considered healthy enough to provoke seizure activity will have few medical illnesses severe enough to be of concern with respect to continuous oxygen delivery. However, patients will be screened for moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and excluded, as their minute ventilation may decrease and CO2 levels increased with continuous oxygen supplementation.
