Phenytoin penetration into brain after administration of phenytoin or fosphenytoin.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Common data elements (CDEs) are currently unavailable for mobile health (mHealth) in epilepsy devices and related applications. As a result, despite expansive growth of new digital services for people with epilepsy, information collected is often not interoperable or directly comparable. We aim to correct thi...
