Abstract: Epilepsy and psychogenic non-epileptic seizures often present with similar seizure-like manifestations but require fundamentally different management strategies. Misdiagnosis is common and can lead to prolonged diagnostic delays, unnecessary treatments, and substantial patient morbidity. Although prolonged video-electroencephalography is the diagnostic gold standard, its high cost and limited accessibility hinder timely diagnosis. Here, we developed a low-cost, effective approach, EpiScreen, for early epilepsy detection by utilizing routinely collected clinical notes from electronic health records. Through fine-tuning large language models on labeled notes, EpiScreen achieved an AUC of up to 0.875 on the MIMIC-IV dataset and 0.980 on a private cohort of the University of Minnesota. In a clinician-AI collaboration setting, EpiScreen-assisted neurologists outperformed unaided experts by up to 10.9%. Overall, this study demonstrates that EpiScreen supports early epilepsy detection, facilitating timely and cost-effective screening that may reduce diagnostic delays and avoid unnecessary interventions, particularly in resource-limited regions.

Ever hear of Evicore? Well, @evicorehc are parasites, living off the money we pay for our health insurance and, in return, denying our healthcare claims. If you know anybody who works for this company, ostracize them. These are bad people.
