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

Maxillofacial Injury Severity Score: proposal of a new scoring system

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2006
In this study a new injury severity score system, the Maxillofacial Injury Severity Score (MFISS), was developed to evaluate the characteristics of injury from maxillofacial trauma. Nine hundred and two cases of maxillofacial trauma were included in this study to evaluate injury severity using the MFISS, which was designed on the basis of Abbreviated ...

Comparison of the Ability to Predict Mortality between the Injury Severity Score and the New Injury Severity Score: A Meta-Analysis

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2016
Background: Description of the anatomical severity of injuries in trauma patients is important. While the Injury Severity Score has been regarded as the “gold standard” since its creation, several studies have indicated that the New Injury Severity Score

Examining correlations between motorcyclist’s conspicuity, apparel related factors and injury severity score: Evidence from new motorcycle crash causation study

Accident Analysis and Prevention, 2019
Motorcyclists are vulnerable road users at a particularly high risk of serious injury or death when involved in a crash. In order to evaluate key risk factors in motorcycle crashes, this study quantifies how different "policy-sensitive" factors correlate

Comparison of the New Injury Severity Score and the Injury Severity Score

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2004
The 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,

Injury Severity Score versus New Injury Severity Score for Penetrating Injuries

Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 2002
AbstractIntroduction: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 ...

The Hand Injury Severity Scoring System

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1996
A descriptive severity scoring system for injuries to the hand, distal to the carpus, has been designed. Each ray of the hand is assessed separately. Each ray’s score is then multiplied by a weighting factor for that ray and added to the scores of the other rays to obtain a total score for the injury. This system has been tested on a series of specimen

Comparisons of Trauma Outcomes and Injury Severity Score.

Journal of Trauma Nursing, 2019
Trauma is a global health problem and a leading cause of mortality. One of the major predictors of trauma mortality is the Injury Severity Score (ISS). Theoretically, as the ISS increases, the probability of survival decreases; ISS = 75 is considered to ...
