Implementation of 2HELPS2B Seizure Risk Score: A High-Value Approach to Seizure Detection in the ICU

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Doctors Emily Fink and Fazila Asim presented their work on implementing a seizure risk scoring tool in the neurocritical care ICU at UNC School of Medicine. They discussed the importance of continuous EEG monitoring in detecting seizures in the ICU and improving patient outcomes. They introduced the two-helps-to-be score, a seizure detection scoring system that stratifies patients based on their risk of seizure. By implementing this scoring system and improving communication amongst the care team, they were able to reduce the average duration of continuous EEG monitoring and accurately identify low-risk patients without compromising seizure detection rates. This project has potential for future applications in triaging patients for tertiary care centers.
