Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome Severity

Quantify Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome severity based on seizure drop attack frequency, EEG slow spike-wave burden, intellectual disability degree, and AED failures.

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

Quantify Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome severity based on seizure drop attack frequency, EEG slow spike-wave burden, intellectual disability degree, and AED failures

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Seizure drop attack frequency — The seizure drop attack frequency recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • EEG slow spike-wave burden — The eeg slow spike-wave burden recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Intellectual disability degree — The intellectual disability degree recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • AED failures — The aed failures recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the lgs severity result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the seizure drop attack frequency, EEG slow spike-wave burden, intellectual disability degree, AED failures for the scenario you are assessing. Quantify Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome severity based on seizure drop attack frequency, EEG slow spike-wave burden, intellectual disability degree, and AED failures. Use the lgs severity result to inform your calculation.
