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.

This study aims at showing if and to what extent injury severity in frontal car crashes increases with the age of front seat occupants. Data on 2658 belted drivers and front seat passengers in Volvo private car series 140, 240 and 740/760, involved in frontal crashes were extracted from the Volvo Car Crash Register.

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Comparison of the New Injury Severity Score and the Injury Severity Score
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2004The New Injury Severity Score (NISS) was proposed in 1997 to replace the Injury Severity Score (ISS) because it is more sensitive for mortality. We aim to test whether this is true in our patients.This study was a retrospective review of data from 6,231 consecutive patients over 3 years in the trauma registry of a Level I trauma center studying outcome,

Epilepsy after severe traumatic brain injury: frequency and injury severity
Brain Injury, 2020Objective: To estimate national frequency of posttraumatic epilepsy (PTE) after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and assess injury severity (Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and posttraumatic amnesia (PTA)) as prognostic factors for PTE.Data on patients ≥18 years surviving severe TBI 2004-2016 were retrieved from the Danish Head Trauma Database (n = 1010 ...

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 ...
