Drug-Resistant Epilepsy Probability

Estimate probability of drug-resistant epilepsy based on seizure type, frequency, MRI findings, and number of failed AEDs per ILAE criteria.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Estimate probability of drug-resistant epilepsy based on seizure type, frequency, MRI findings, and number of failed AEDs per ILAE criteria

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Seizure type — The seizure type recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Frequency — The frequency recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • MRI findings — The mri findings recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Number of failed AEDs per ILAE criteria — The number of failed aeds per ilae criteria recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the dre probability result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the seizure type, frequency, MRI findings, number of failed AEDs per ILAE criteria for the scenario you are assessing. Estimate probability of drug-resistant epilepsy based on seizure type, frequency, MRI findings, and number of failed AEDs per ILAE criteria. Use the dre probability result to inform your calculation.
