The Injury Severity Score Revisited
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1988The injury severity score (5) (iss) is a scalar (single number) measure of anatomic injury, widely used in and an important contribution to trauma research. The iss is the sum of squares of the highest abbreviated injury scale (1-3) (AIS) grade in each of the three most severely injured body regions.

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,

The Hand Injury Severity Scoring System
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1996A 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.

Abbreviated Injury Scale and Injury Severity Score
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1985The Abbreviated Injury Scale and the Injury Severity Score are important tools for grading the severity of injury to trauma patients. The Trauma Chart provided is a simple and concise guide for scoring and recording this useful information. The chart is useful in both a large wall-mounted form and in the reduced two-page form included in this article.

Injury severity scoring systems
Injury, 1982ESTIMATES 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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Evaluation of skiing injuries by Injury Severity Score
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 1999The 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.

Cervical Spine Injury Severity Score
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2007Systems for classifying cervical spine injury most commonly use mechanistic or morphologic terms and do not quantify the degree of stability. Along with neurologic function, stability is a major determinant of treatment and prognosis. The goal of our study was to investigate the reliability of a method of quantifying the stability of subaxial (C3-C7 ...
