Injury Severity Scoring

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 1999
The wish to predict outcome following injury is as old as human history, but the actual measurement of injury severity began only 40 years ago. Tools are now available to measure both physical injury [the Injury Severity Score (ISS)] and physiologic derangement [the Revised Trauma Score (RTS)], as well as their synergistic combination, into a ...

Use of the Injury Severity Score in head injury

Injury, 1995
As part of a study of the early management of severe head injury, the use of the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), Injury Severity Score (ISS) and TRISS was investigated. These injury scores were compared in correlating with outcome at one year as assessed by the Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) and mortality.

Evaluation of skiing injuries by Injury Severity Score

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 1999
The goal of this study was to evaluate the Injury Severity Score (ISS) in an alpine area. Hafjell Alpine Centre was the 1994 Winter Olympic Alpine arena in Lillehammer. A total of 2 044 484 lift transportations and 183 injuries were registered in the two winter seasons 1991 and 1992. The injury rate was 1.8 injuries per 1000 skier days.

Injury severity scoring systems

Injury, 1982
ESTIMATES Of severity are fundamental to the practice of medicine. The earliest known surgical text, the Smith papyrus (Breasted, 1930), classified injuries into three clinical grades. A gaping wound of the head down to but not penetrating the skull: 'this ailment I will treat' a similar wound with skull fracture and bleeding from nose and ears and ...

Forensic Usefulness of the Injury Severity Score

Medicine, Science and the Law, 1987
This paper, based upon a case report, shows the forensic usefulness of the Injury Severity Score (ISS). The ISS is found to be of great use in deciding to what degree each injury is responsible for the death of a patient with multiple injuries.

Injury Severity Scoring

2019
The injury severity scores can estimate the prognosis and risk of complications after a trauma. They serve as important adjuncts in triage, patient care, and research. Furthermore, they can be used for evaluation of hospital resource utilization and cost-effectiveness studies in trauma.

Should the New Injury Severity Score replace the Injury Severity Score in the Trauma and Injury Severity Score?

Ulusal travma ve acil cerrahi dergisi = Turkish journal of trauma & emergency surgery : TJTES, 2008
This study was performed to compare the efficacies of Injury Severity Score (ISS) and New Injury Severity Score (NISS), and to investigate whether replacing ISS with NISS in Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) changes the predictive power for mortality.We retrospectively analyzed 550 patients aged over 16 years seen in our center over a period of ...

A comparison of Injury Severity Score and New Injury Severity Score after penetrating trauma

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2015
The Injury Severity Score (ISS) has been validated in numerous studies and has become one of the most common trauma scoring systems since its inception. The ISS equation was later modified to create the New Injury Severity Score (NISS). By using the three most severe injuries regardless of body region, the NISS seems well suited to describe patients of

Injury Severity Scoring Again

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1995
Reliable methods of controlling for casemix differences in injured patient populations are an essential prerequisite for the scientific study of injury. Without them, epidemiological studies would lack perspective and interventional studies would be severely confounded unless governed by ...

The injury severity score—Importance and uses

Annals of Epidemiology, 1995
The development and attributes of the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) and the Injury Severity Score (ISS) are reviewed. The ISS was proved to be an excellent method for retrospective comparison of overall injury data between populations differing in time or space.
