West Syndrome Prognosis Score

Estimate neurodevelopmental prognosis in West Syndrome (infantile spasms) based on etiology, spasm onset age, hypsarrhythmia pattern, and treatment response.

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 neurodevelopmental prognosis in West Syndrome (infantile spasms) based on etiology, spasm onset age, hypsarrhythmia pattern, and treatment response

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Etiology — The etiology recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Spasm onset age — The spasm onset age recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Hypsarrhythmia pattern — The hypsarrhythmia pattern recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Treatment response — The treatment response recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the west syndrome prognosis result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the etiology, spasm onset age, hypsarrhythmia pattern, treatment response for the scenario you are assessing. Estimate neurodevelopmental prognosis in West Syndrome (infantile spasms) based on etiology, spasm onset age, hypsarrhythmia pattern, and treatment response. Use the west syndrome prognosis result to inform your calculation.
