The measurement of injury severity
British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1994Severity of injury can now be measured objectively and in a manner relevant to everyday practice. A variety of scales/scores are available which are based either on anatomical or physiological parameters or a combination of these. ASCOT methodology represents the most recent major contribution in this area, and follows AIS and TRISS as an established ...

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2013
Background: The diagnosis of Sever’s injury (apophysitis calcanei) has previously been partly based on radiographic findings in the calcaneal apophysis. Sclerosis and fragmentation have been supposed to represent signs of inflammation due to tractions from the Achilles tendon.

Injury, 1995
Thirty-seven consecutive patients with severe snowboard-related injuries (defined by referral to a Level I trauma centre) were reviewed. The type and mechanism of each injury were examined and found to be similar to those reported for skiers. Mild closed head injuries were common (54 per cent).

Burns, 1989
From January 1979 to January 1987, 125 patients were treated in our Centre for various electrical injuries. Among them, 85 patients were over 15 years of age (89.4 per cent were males and 10.6 per cent females) and 40 patients were below 15 years of age (92.5 per cent were males and 7.5 per cent females).

A survey of 47 patients who sustained severe chainsaw injuries has been carried out. It shows that this machine, while an extremely useful one, is hazardous. Most of the patients were young, and over half of the injuries involved a hand. One fatality was recorded.

Measures of severity of injury
Injury, 1978INTRODUCTION THE full description of an injury includes its site, type and severity. The site is readily defined anatomically and type derives from diagnosis and pathology; severity, however, has no agreed formulation. Clinically, we imply by severity the extent of injuries, the hazard they cause to life, the period and extent of incapacity and degree ...

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1997
The Injury Severity Score (ISS) does not take into account multiple injuries in the same body region, whereas a New ISS (NISS) may provide a more accurate measure of trauma severity by considering the patient's three greatest injuries regardless of body region.

World Journal of Surgery, 1983
AbstractThe assets and drawbacks of ISS are documented, utilising 2 groups of patients with blunt multiple trauma. Group I consisted of 80 patients with 417 fractures and 163 major associated injuries. Group A had early fracture stabilization and prophylactic ventilation, Group B had early fracture stabilization without prophylactic ventilation, Group ...

Injury Severity Score versus New Injury Severity Score for Penetrating Injuries
Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 2002AbstractIntroduction:The New Injury Severity Score (NISS) was introduced in 1997 to improve outcome prediction based on anatomical severity scoring in trauma victims. Studies on populations of blunt trauma victims indicate that the NISS, predicts better than the Injury Severity Score (ISS) mortality post-injury, which is why the NISS has been ...
