AI and smartphone videos could help parents spot seizures in newborns

NCT ID NCT07695623

First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This study aims to develop a machine learning tool that can predict which newborns are at high risk of having more seizures after leaving the hospital. Researchers will also create a mobile video education program for mothers of high-risk infants, teaching them how to recognize seizures, give emergency care, and manage medications. The study will test whether this education improves mothers' knowledge and reduces their anxiety compared to standard discharge instructions.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Mobile Video-Supported Education
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help identify infants at highest risk of seizure recurrence and provide parents with better tools to manage their baby's condition at home.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study (60 participants) focused on knowledge and anxiety, not on preventing seizures directly. The machine learning model may not be accurate enough for wider use.
