Our story
predictepilepsy.com is a centralized, freely available platform bringing together commonly used prognostic calculators for epilepsy. Here is how it has developed since launch. Most calculators were developed by others; we provide their implementation for ease of access — see our Disclaimer & methodology.
predictepilepsy.com is set up as a home for evidence-based epilepsy prognostic models — a place where clinicians can reach validated risk calculators in one click.
The platform launches with its first interactive calculators: the SeLECT and IsCHEMiA scores for epilepsy after ischaemic stroke, the CAVE score after intracerebral haemorrhage, and an initial collection of prognostic models across stroke, haemorrhage, tumours and traumatic brain injury.
The Information pages explain how each calculator is built — from data extraction to cumulative-risk and COSY (conditional risk of a seizure in the next year) curves, and driving-eligibility thresholds — alongside the SeLECT consortium behind the project.
Three papers frame the science behind the tools: a review of prognostic models after brain injury (which introduces the predictepilepsy.com calculators), a Lancet Neurology piece on driving in people with seizures, and an Epilepsia review on epilepsy as a dynamic disease. See the Publications page below.
All calculators are relaunched as fast, dependency-free, mobile-friendly tools in a unified design — each with interactive cumulative-risk and COSY curves, 95% confidence intervals where available, and driving-eligibility cut-offs.
Rapid expansion of the library: first-seizure recurrence & driving tools; laser-ablation (SLAH) and frontal-lobe surgery outcomes; presurgical planning (Jehi seizure-freedom nomogram, 5-SENSE for stereo-EEG); naming, memory and mood outcomes after temporal-lobe surgery; SUDEP tools (SUDEP-3, a personalised SUDEP risk model, and a risk-marker reference); and the Lamberink individualised ASM-withdrawal nomograms.
Around 50 calculators are now organised in a modern, guided finder — grouped by clinical situation (acute brain injury, first or unprovoked seizure, stopping medication, epilepsy surgery, and SUDEP risk) — so you reach the right tool in a couple of clicks. Go to the calculators →
