In High Income Countries:

Epilepsy is diagnosed with an electroencephalogram (EEG) machine, which are common. A neurologist interprets the results and makes a diagnosis. A seizure medication is prescribed, and most patients live seizure free.

In LMICS
(Low and Middle-Income countries):

EEG machines are expensive to buy ($15k min), difficult to operate, and are rare. Neurologists are rare (some nations just 1 per 5 million + people). Medicine is cheap and accessible, while Diagnosis is lacking

The world’s most common brain disease (WHO)

80% of people with epilepsy live in low and middle-income countries (LMICs)

Affects >50M people globally

>75% (30M) of these people do not receive treatment

An affordable, Bluetooth enabled amplifier and electrode cap

An app for datacollection and upload to cloud

A Quality Control (QC) algorithm to enable clean data collection by non-expert workers

Telemedicine via app/cloud enables remote diagnosis by neurologist

A Diagnostic support algorithm reduces time to diagnosis

1- Low Cost of Acquisition – Point of care diagnostic

Increases availability of EEG diagnostics
Reduces cost of diagnosis, brings hardware to point of care

2- Reduces need for specialized staff

Health Care Professionals with short training can perform EEG data collection
Reduces staff costs through automation

3- Delivers access to experts and uses AI as a force-multiplier

Transfers and interprets data to remote neurologists, removing need for travel
Can diagnose more patients with the same amount of work

Private Clinics/Hospitals

Provide majority of care in LMICs
Mid- to Low end facilities do not have EEG
Can increase revenue from added diagnostic
Specialist revenue-sharing with hospitals

Diagnosing Epilepsy Leads to Healthy Lives

Neurological disorders are the leading cause of years lost to disability
Rates of epilepsy are substantially higher in LMICs due to parasites, injuries, and other issues
Epilepsy often affects children <10 years old
Without treatment their lives are disrupted by seizures
