Automated Prediction of Glasgow Outcome Scale for Traumatic Brain Injury
Clinical features found in brain CT scan images are widely used in traumatic brain injury (TBI) as indicators for Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) prediction. However, due to the lack of automated methods to measure and quantify the CT scan image features, the computerized prediction of GOS in TBI has not been well studied.

Development of Glasgow Coma and Outcome Scales
These scales were developed primarily to facilitate the assessment and recording of initial severity of brain dysfunction and of ultimate outcome in a multicenter study of outcome after severe brain damage. The aim was to use simple terms that could be readily understood by a wide range of observers, including doctors, nurses and others.

Modified Glasgow coma scale for predicting outcome after subarachnoid hemorrhage surgery
Abstract There are many grading scales that attempt to predict outcome following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Most scales used to assess outcome are based on the neurological status of the patient. Here, we propose a new scale for aSAH patients that combines the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and the modified Fisher ...

Effects of Glasgow Outcome Scale Misclassification on Traumatic Brain Injury Clinical Trials [PDF]
The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is the primary endpoint for efficacy analysis of clinical trials in traumatic brain injury (TBI). Accurate and consistent assessment of outcome after TBI is essential to the evaluation of treatment results, particularly in the context of multicenter studies and trials.

The Glasgow Outcome at Discharge Scale: An Inpatient Assessment of Disability after Brain Injury [PDF]
This study assesses the validity and reliability of the Glasgow Outcome at Discharge Scale (GODS), which is a tool that is designed to assess disability after brain injury in an inpatient setting. It is derived from the Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOS-E), which assesses disability in the community after brain injury.
