The Effect of AI-assisted cEEG Diagnosis on the Administration of

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a prospective randomised clinical trial study to test an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted continuous electroencephalogram(cEEG) diagnostic tool for optimizing the administration of antiseizure medication (ASM) in neonatal intensive care units(NICUs).

Clinical Trial Description

The occurrence of neonatal seizures may be the first, and perhaps the only, clinical sign of a central nervous system disorder in the newborn infant. The promoted treatment of seizures can limit the secondary injury to the brain and positively affect the infant's long-term neurological development. However, the current antiseizure medication (ASM) are both overused and underused. Studies indicated that early automated seizure detection tool had a high diagnostic accuracy of neonatal seizures. However, there is little evidence that early automated seizure detection tool could the optimize the administration of ASM and improved the neurological outcomes in neonatal seizures. Therefore, the primary study aim is to investigate whether the utility of AI assisted cEEG diagnostic tool could optimize the administration of ASM in NICUs. This project will enroll the neonates with suspected or high risk of seizures who will receive at least 72 hours cEEG monitoring during hospitalization. All the cEEG monitoring methodology is standardized across recruiting hospitals. The intervention will be an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted continues electroencephalogram (cEEG) diagnostic tool. The individuals were randomly allocated to one of the two groups using a predetermined randomisation sequence and block randomisation generator (block of 4). The group 1 will be monitored with cEEG and the cEEG recording will be assessed by neonatologists with AI assisted cEEG diagnostic tool in real time during cEEG monitoring. The group 2 will be monitored with cEEG and the cEEG recording will be assessed by neonatologists when as routine during cEEG monitoring. Both groups will follow the standard clinical protocols for ASM administration of the recruiting hospitals The reference standard is the electrographic seizures interpreted by 3 clinicians who had attended the uniformly training program and were certified by the Chinese Anti-Epilepsy Association. These 3 clinicians are blinded to the group allocation. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
