  • The SeLECT scoring system is designed to predict the risk of seizures following a stroke by evaluating a comprehensive set of clinical and diagnostic criteria. It involves five parameters: severity of stroke, large-artery atherosclerotic aetiology, early (ie, acute symptomatic) seizures, cortical involvement and territory of middle cerebral artery involvement (MCA).

  • MCA, Middle cerebral artery ; NIHSS, National Institutes of Healthy Stroke Scale.
