Scores

This is a list of all our clinical decision support tools, perhaps including some that are not yet published.

Functional Seizures Likelihood Score (DSLS)

Data-driven estimate the likelihood of functional seizures compared to epileptic seizures using 20 questions typically asked in an initial neurology encounter. (Formerly called dissociative seizures)

Kerr WT, Janio EA, Chau AM, Braesch CT, Le JM, Hori JM, Patel AB, Gallardo NL, Allas CH, Karimi AH, Dubey I, Sreenivasan SS, Bauirjan J, Hwang ES, Davis EC, D’Ambrosio, SR, Al Banna M, Mazumder R, Wu T, DeCant ZA, Gibbs MG, Chang E, Zhang X, Cho AY, Beimer NJ, Engel J, Jr., Cohen MS, Stern JM. Objective score from initial interview identifies patients with probable dissociative seizures. Epilepsy & Behavior. 2020. PMID: 33197798. Calculator

DSLS – Ictal Behavior

Data-driven estimate of the likelihood of dissociative seizures compared to epileptic seizures using details of the ictal behavior.

Kerr WT, Chau AM, Janio EA, Braesch CT, Le JM, Hori JM, Patel AB, Gallardo NL, Bauirjan J, Allas CH, Karimi AH, Hwang ES, Davis EC, Buchard A, Torres-Barba D, D’Ambrosio S, Al Banna M, Cho AY, Engel J, Jr., Cohen MS, Stern JM. Reliability of reported peri-ictal behavior to identify psychogenic nonepileptic seizures. Seizure. 67:45-51. 2019. PMID: 30884437. Mendeley Data & Code

DSLS – History

Data-driven estimate of the likelihood of dissociative seizures compared to epileptic seizures using details of the history as acquired during an initial neurology interview.

Kerr WT, Janio EA, Braesch CT, Le JM, Hori JM, Patel AB, Gallardo NL, Bauirjan J, Chau AM, Hwang ES, Davis EC, Buchard A, Torres-Barba D, D’Ambrosio S, Al Banna, M, Cho AY, Engel J, Jr., Cohen MS, Stern JM. An objective score to identify psychogenic seizures based on age of onset and history. Epilepsy & Behavior. 80:75-83. 2018. PMID: 29414562. Mendeley Data & Code

DSLS – Comorbidities and Medications

Data-driven estimate of the likelihood of dissociative seizures compared to epileptic seizures using comorbidities and medication history

Kerr WT, Janio EA, Braesch CT, Le JM, Hori JM, Patel AB, Gallardo NL, Bauirjan J, D’Ambrosio SR, Chau AM, Hwang ES, Davis EC, Buchard A, Torres-Barba D, Al Banna M, Barritt SE, Cho AY, Engel J, Jr., Cohen MS, Stern JM. Identifying psychogenic seizures through comorbidities and medication history. Epilepsia. 58(11):1852-1860. 2017. PMCID: 5669805 Mendeley Data & Code
