Algorithm for Neonatal Seizure Recognition (ANSeR)
An output of the algorithm is a graph of the probability of seizure (upper blue trace) which turns red when a predefined threshold is breeched and a seizure is designated.
The focus of research at UCL (Sean Mathieson) is analyzing the performance of ANSeR from a neurophysiological perspective including: the characteristics of detected and non-detected seizures, the effect of phenobarbitone on seizure morphology and on the performance of ANSeR and also whether the use of ANSeR improves drug treatment times.
