Popis: An intensive care unit (ICU) is a special ward in the hospital for patients who require intensive care. It is equipped with many instruments monitoring patients’ vital signs and supported by the medical staff. However, continuous monitoring demands a massive workload of medical care. To ease the burden, we aim to develop an automatic detection model to monitor when brain anomalies occur. In this study, we focus on electroencephalography (EEG), which monitors the brain electroactivity of patients continuously. It is mainly for the diagnosis of brain malfunction. We propose the gated-recurrent-unit-based (GRU-based) model for detecting brain anomalies; it predicts whether the spike or sharp wave happens within a short time window. Based on the banana montage setting, the proposed model exploits characteristics of multiple channels simultaneously to detect anomalies. It is trained, validated, and tested on separated EEG data and achieves more than 90% testing performance on sensitivity, specificity, and balanced accuracy. The proposed anomaly detection model detects the existence of a spike or sharp wave precisely; it will notify the ICU medical staff, who can provide immediate follow-up treatment. Consequently, it can reduce the medical workload in the ICU significantly.
