An AI model accurately detected epileptic spasms in infants through smartphone videos, with an 83% correct identification rate. The researchers developed a digital tool for parents to upload videos of their infants’ movements to a secure platform for AI analysis, aiming to accelerate the diagnosis process. Early identification of infantile spasms is crucial for timely treatment and improved outcomes. Smartphone recordings have previously aided in diagnosing epileptic spasms, but required analysis by a specialist. The AI-based video analysis showed an 85% accurate detection rate for epileptic seizures, prompting further study to determine its potential in a healthcare setting.
