The Glasgow coma scale (GCS) is a tool used to assess and calculate a patient’s level of consciousness. It was developed more than 40 years ago by two neurosurgeons in Glasgow and is widely applied today.1 The GCS uses a triple criteria scoring system: best eye opening (maximum 4 points), best verbal response (maximum 5 points), and best motor response

The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is an international tool used to measure the level of consciousness for traumatically injured patients. One Level I and 3 Level II Trauma Centers in our Health Care System perceived a deficiency in the documentation of the GCS. An audit was performed and insufficient documentation was confirmed.

The Glasgow Coma Scale: A mathematical critique
Acta Neurochirurgica, 1993The Glasgow Coma Scale permits 120 possible mathematical combinations of eye, verbal and motor scores. Out of these only about 15 are clinically valid and useful in the assessment of altered consciousness. A mathematical analysis of this pruned scale shows a predominant skew towards the motor response. Without clinically altering the scale.

The use of glasgow coma scale in poisoning
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1993A 12-month prospective study was undertaken to observe current practice and to determine if a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) of 8 or less on admission is a useful parameter to predict the need for airway protection in poisoning. For the period of September 1988 to August 1989, there were 414 admissions for poisoning with 3 fatalities (0.7%).

The value of the Glasgow coma scale is definite and widely accepted. It is a help in teaching a difficult subject, in mutual understanding in a few words, and in comparison of cases. It uses accurate and practical observations. It is the best method of measuring the state of consciousness, provided observation of the diameter and light reaction of the ...

Physician Knowledge of the Glasgow Coma Scale
Journal of Neurotrauma, 2005Appropriate triage is critical to optimizing outcome from battle related injuries. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is the primary means by which combat casualties, who have suffered head injury, are triaged. For the GCS to be reliable in this critical role, it must be applied accurately.

Interrater Reliability of the Glasgow Coma Scale
Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1995The purpose of this study was to test the interrater reliability of the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) when used in assessing neurologically impaired patients. In order to control variables, a videotape was developed of seven patients with different neurological impairments. A total of 57 nurses and physicians with varying degrees of education and experience

Student's Test and the Glasgow Coma Scale
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1996To explore how Student's t test, which assumes normal errors, is affected by the nonnormal distribution of Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores.A sample of 145,295 GCS scores from the Pennsylvania Trauma Systems Foundation was assumed to represent the true GCS distribution.
