New injury severity score (NISS) outperforms injury severity score (ISS) in the evaluation of severe blunt trauma patients [PDF]
Purpose: The injury severity score (ISS) and new injury severity score (NISS) have been widely used in trauma evaluation. However, which scoring system is better in trauma outcome prediction is still disputed. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the

The new injury severity score underestimates true injury severity in a resource-constrained setting [PDF]
Background: The new injury severity score (NISS) is widely used within trauma outcomes research. NISS is a composite anatomic severity score derived from the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) protocol.

Combining the new injury severity score with an anatomical polytrauma injury variable predicts mortality better than the new injury severity score and the injury severity score: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Anatomy-based injury severity scores are commonly used with physiological scores for reporting severity of injury in a standardized manner. However, there is lack of consensus on choice of scoring system, with the commonly used injury severity score (ISS) performing poorly for certain sub-groups, eg head-injured patients.

Injury Severity Scoring in the Resuscitation Room-Is Preliminary Injury Severity Score Accurate? [PDF]
ABSTRACTBackgroundThe Injury Severity Score (ISS) is a commonly used trauma assessment tool. An accurately calculated ISS is fundamental when used for the classification of the injury severity of trauma patients and subsequent evaluation of a trauma center's performance.

Comparison between Injury Severity Score (ISS) and New Injury Severity Score (NISS) in predicting mortality of thoracic trauma in a tertiary hospital [PDF]
Introduction: measuring the severity of traumatic injuries is crucial for predicting clinical outcomes. Whereas the Injury Severity Score (ISS) has limitations in assigning scores to injuries at the same site, the New Injury Severity Score (NISS ...
