Exactly how NOT to implement a model.

Important lessons for medical field, especially with the AI boom. Models need to guide human judgment, not replace it.

1/ Keppra (levetiracetam) loading dose isn’t 1-2g for all status epilepticus patients.

Recommended dose is 60 mg/kg (max 4.5g) as per the landmark ESETT trial.

Important to give full dose especially when case warrants it.
