History and Current Status of Trauma Scoring Systems
Archives of Surgery, 1992The concept of scoring systems for trauma is relatively new. Triage systems were first developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Increased organization of trauma systems since that time has emphasized the importance of getting the right patient to the right hospital at the right time and has resulted in continued interest in triage systems ...

Comparative Study of Four Maxillofacial Trauma Scoring Systems and Expert Score
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2014To select a scoring system suitable for the scoring of maxillofacial trauma by comparing 4 commonly used scoring systems according to expert scoring.Twenty-eight subjects who had experienced maxillofacial trauma constituted the study cohort. Four commonly used systems were selected: New Injury Severity Score (NISS), Facial Injury Severity Scale (FISS),

The prognostic importance of trauma scoring systems in pediatric patients
Pediatric Surgery International, 2008Traumas are among important causes of morbidity and mortality in the pediatric group. Our aim was to evaluate the predicting effects of general trauma scores on mortality and morbidity rates.The files of 74 patients, who were admitted to our hospital with trauma between the years 2006 and 2008, were retrospectively investigated.

Trauma Score Systems for Quality Assessment
European Journal of Trauma, 2002For more than 30 years, several attempts to quantify severity of injuries on a numerical scale have been developed and applied. These score systems play an important role in research but also in comparative analyses in quality assessment. Besides the Injury Severity Score which is by far the most frequently applied score, several more sophisticated ...

Der Unfallchirurg, 1993
Quality control in the treatment of trauma patients often consists in comparisons of survival rates. The trauma population under study is seldom defined with regard to severity of injury. Therefore crude survival rates are of little help when the quality of care is discussed.
