ABSTRACT
Brain maturity and many clinical treatments such as therapeutic hypothermia (TH) can significantly influence the morphology of neonatal EEG seizures after hypoxia-ischemia (HI), and so there is a need for generalized automatic seizure identification. This study validates efficacy of advanced deep-learning pattern classifiers based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) for seizure detection after HI in fetal sheep and determines the effects of maturation and brain cooling on their accuracy. The cohorts included HI-normothermia term (n = 7), HI-hypothermia term (n = 14), sham-normothermia term (n = 5), and HI-normothermia preterm (n = 14) groups, with a total of >17,300 h of recordings. Algorithms were trained and tested using leave-one-out cross-validation and k-fold cross-validation approaches. The accuracy of the term-trained seizure detectors was consistently excellent for HI-normothermia preterm data (accuracy = 99.5%, area under curve (AUC) = 99.2%). Conversely, when the HI-normothermia preterm data were used in training, the performance on HI-normothermia term and HI-hypothermia term data fell (accuracy = 98.6%, AUC = 96.5% and accuracy = 96.9%, AUC = 89.6%, respectively). Findings suggest that HI-normothermia preterm seizures do not contain all the spectral features seen at term. Nevertheless, an average 5-fold cross-validated accuracy of 99.7% (AUC = 99.4%) was achieved from all seizure detectors. This significant advancement highlights the reliability of the proposed deep-learning algorithms in identifying clinically translatable post-HI stereotypic seizures in 256Hz recordings, regardless of maturity and with minimal impact from hypothermia.
