Epi-Care is a unique wrist-worn epilepsy alert bracelet that detects tonic-clonic seizures. It is suitable for anyone over 10 years old.
Epi-Care is a unique wrist-worn sensor that detects tonic-clonic seizures. It has a discreet and modern design, which is unobtrusive for the user.
The lightweight sensor can be worn 24 hours a day and only needs an hour to charge. The advanced 3-axis accelerometer can detect convulsions and vibrations that occur during seizures. The intelligent gyroscope within the wristband can differentiate between a seizure and the movement of everyday activities.
With Epi-Care, safety is a top priority.
The option you choose determines how seizure alerts are handled.
| Monitoring option | Who is it for? | Where can it be used? | Price |
| Sends alerts to a mobile phone (included) | People aged 10+ who suffer from tonic-clonic seizures | Anywhere (not restricted to home use). Includes GPS. | £1,195 |
| Sends alerts to a pager and a control unit | People aged 10+ who suffer from tonic-clonic seizures | At home or in a care home setting | £1,399 |
With this option, the Epi-Care device wirelessly connects to the paired smartphone (included) via Bluetooth and sends data to the Epi-Care epilepsy app that comes pre-installed.
The app can then be set up to send alerts to any other mobile phone(s) which may not be close by. This means you can wear the alarm wherever you go.
The included handset must be within a range of
10-15m (30-50ft.) from the Epi-Care epilepsy alert bracelet for it to work effectively.
If you choose the mobile package, we include a Motorola E6s smartphone with your epilepsy device which comes pre-installed with the Epi-Care epilepsy app and is already paired to your Epi-Care wrist sensor, ready to use.
This device cannot be used as a regular phone. All features (including calls, texts, web browsing, apps etc) are restricted.
*Please note: The smartphone requires a SIM card. This is not supplied and must be purchased separately.
This option may be ideal for parents who sleep in another part of the house, or for carers who are not always in the same room as the patient.
With this option, the wristband communicates wirelessly with the control unit which can be up to 20m away. The control unit then transmits an alert signal to the radio pager, which can be 100m from the control unit.
In the event of a seizure, the sensor will flash red, and the control unit will show the text ‘ALARM’ in the display, the right LED will light red and rapid beeping sounds will be played.
The pager will start vibrating and making beeping sounds allowing parents or carers to provide immediate assistance.
When used in a care home environment, you can connect multiple epilepsy sensors to one pager.
The pager’s on-screen notification will inform you which wrist sensor is activated so you can locate the patient quickly.
The Epi-Care system is an advanced epilepsy monitoring and alert system designed to help individuals manage their condition effectively.
It combines wearable devices, mobile apps, and cloud-based monitoring to provide comprehensive seizure detection, data analysis, and caregiver notification.
The advanced 3-axis accelerometer can detect convulsions and vibrations that occur during seizures. The intelligent gyroscope within the wristband can differentiate between a seizure and the movement of everyday activities.
The battery on the bracelet lasts 23 hours and takes 1 hour to charge.
Remember to keep the included smartphone charged as well.
The Epi-Care will detect tonic clonic seizures via its 3-dimensional accelerometer.
The sensor has a level of waterproof protection (IP37), meaning users can wear it whenever they wash hands or take a shower.
With the mobile version, the Epi-Care sensor must be within 10-15 metres of the included smartphone.
With the in-home/pager version, the wristband wirelessly connects to the base unit, which has an indoor range of up to 20 metres. This is the control unit which should be set up in the device user's bedroom. It also connects to a pager that can be up to 100 metres* away from the person wearing the epilepsy alert bracelet.
* Please note that the maximum range between the base unit and the pager is based on line-of-sight between the two devices. With a clear line-of-sight, greater distances can be achieved.
With the mobile version, the epilepsy sensor will send an alert via your Epi-Care app as well as informing you if the battery is low or the signal is interrupted.
With the pager version, the epilepsy sensor will alert you when you are out of range from the control unit as well as informing you if the battery is low or the signal is interrupted.
With the mobile version, the app logs each incident allowing you to keep a seizure journal and easily share this with doctors or physicians.
With the pager version, the control unit logs each incident allowing you to easily keep a seizure journal.
