In addition, this study will assess the effect of IV lacosamide on EKG (electrocardiogram), a test which checks for problems with the electrical activity of the heart.', 'detailedDescription': 'The impact of antiepileptic drugs on the EEG can vary from marked to none. A small number of AEDs also affect the EKG. Lacosamide is a new AED that selectively enhances slow inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels, resulting in stabilization of hyperexcitable neuronal membranes and inhibition of repetitive neuronal firing. Information is lacking about the effect of lacosamide on brain and heart rhythms.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
