RNS System

The RNS (Responsive Neurostimulation) System is a medical device designed to help manage epilepsy. It monitors brain activity in real-time and detects abnormal patterns that may lead to seizures. When it identifies such activity, it delivers electrical stimulation to specific brain areas to normalize the signals and prevent seizures from occurring. The system is implanted under the skin with leads placed in the brain and works continuously to provide personalized, adaptive treatment tailored to the individual’s neural activity, aiming to reduce seizure frequency and improve quality of life.
