1. A method for analyzing seizure activity:
- receiving a set of physiological signal data collected on an ambulatory basis using a device implanted in a patient, said set of physiological signal data comprising EEG data containing a plurality of seizure events;
processing the set of physiological signal data with a seizure detection algorithm to detect the plurality of seizure events; and
operating report generation software to generate a seizure activity report, said seizure activity report comprising seizure activity metrics.

Abstract
The present invention provides systems and methods for ambulatory, long term monitoring of a physiological signal from a patient. At least a portion of the systems of the present invention may be implanted within the patient in a minimally invasive manner. In preferred embodiments, brain activity signals are sampled from the patient and are transmitted to a handheld patient communication device for further processing.
