One of the scariest moments in the life of a parent whose child suffers from epilepsy is when that child has a seizure. In addition, if the child is unattended, a prolonged seizure can lead to brain damage, and even death.
Israeli startup BioLert is minimizing that risk by developing a warning device called Epilert to support a long needed remote monitoring solution for people with epilepsy and their caregivers. Epilert will detect and recognize epileptic seizures, according to the company's CEO Amos Shaham.
