individuals taking specific antipsychotic medications may develop TD.1
symptoms can appear after starting these medications.2
Screening for TD is often delayed — or skipped altogether. Failing to screen routinely puts patients at risk of undetected progression and exposes providers to clinical liability and compliance gaps. In today’s behavioral health landscape, meeting screening standards isn’t optional — it’s essential.
Provider Sign Up“There’s always that doubt—‘Did I really see dyskinesia or was that just normal movement?’ TDScreen helps me make confident, evidence-based decisions.”
Clinically Validated
Published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, a peer-reviewed study across 356 participants found that TDScreen’s AI achieved an AUC of 0.89 and surpassed the sensitivity and specificity of trained clinicians using the standard AIMS assessment.
How It Works
The TDScreen tool is based on the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), a comprehensive clinician-rated scale designed to specifically evaluate orofacial movements. Employing advanced AI video technology, TDScreen efficiently assesses and quantifies symptom presence and severity of tardive dyskinesia in less than 5 minutes. The resulting score generated by this screening can aid in clinical decision-making and management strategies.
