The Epi-Care mobile epilepsy alarm can be used inside or outside of buildings - day and night
1: Enter alarm numbers in the app
When a seizure happens, Epi-Care mobile calls the registered number. If no one answers, Epi-Care mobile will call a backup number.
2: The sensor monitors tonic-clonic seizures
The sensor is placed around the wrist, just like a watch. It can distinguish between tonic-clonic epileptic seizures and regular movement. After 15 seconds of continues shaking it alerts to the smartphone which then calls the cell number programmed into it.
3: Epi-Care mobile alerts if a seizure occurs
Epi-Care mobile will call the registered number. The alarm will also send GPS-coordinates in a text message.
Made for smartphones
Epi-Care mobile wristband sensor communicates wirelessly with an Motorola Android smartphone. The app can call different numbers in case of a seizure, dependent on your location. E.g. Epi-Care mobile can call one number if you are at your parents’ house and another one if you are at work or school. Epi-Care mobile also sends out the GPS-coordinates, so relatives are able to see where the seizure occurred.
You can put the phone aside as long as there are no more than 10-15 metres between the wristband sensor and the phone.
The app alerts if errors occur
With Epi-Care mobile, safety is a top priority.
The app sends a text message to the caregiver’s phone when the wristband or the phone needs charging. It also sends a text message if the wristband is out of reach. The Epi-Care mobile also provides the user with the opportunity to cancel false alarms.
As with the other Epi-Care epilepsy alarms, Epi-Care mobile has a built-in log that documents seizures including dates and times. From the app, a list with the date and time of the seizures can be sent via email to relatives and doctors.
Recognises tonic-clonic seizures
Epi-Care free is developed to register and alert in case of tonic-clonic epileptic seizures. The wristband recognises the distinctive movements of a seizure. Epi-Care free does not react to everyday movements, for example when a person eats, reads or sleeps.
Aware of location
With the function called “locations” in Epi-Care mobile, it is possible to have multiple numbers connected. The user can enter a local alarm number for when he/she is at home or at school/work during the weekdays and another number during the weekends if the user stays with relatives. The phone figures out who to call depending on the location of the user.
