Trauma audit--the use of TRISS.

Health trends, 1988
The TRISS methodology for evaluating trauma care has been applied in two UK hospitals over a 12 month period. Unexpected deaths occurred in both hospitals and were related to delays in transport between hospitals. The delays were instigated by the receiving hospitals and never the despatching hospital.

TRISS UNEXPECTED SURVIVORS-A STATISTICAL PHENOMENON OR A CLINICAL REALITY?

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1992
Data from patients treated in Pennsylvania-accredited trauma centers during 1989 were analyzed. TRISS expected and unexpected survivors (1.6% of all survivors) differed in many ways. Unexpected survivors were more than twice as likely to have been transferred from a nondesignated trauma center (45.8% vs. 22.8%, p < 0.001).

A Simple Mathematical Modification of TRISS Markedly Improves Calibration

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2002
TRISS has reigned as the preeminent trauma outcome prediction model for 20 years. Despite this endorsement, the calibration of TRISS has been poor in most data sets where it has been examined. We hypothesized that the lack of calibration of TRISS was because of the inappropriate mathematical specification of the model that TRISS is based on, rather ...

TRISS, Unmanned Deep Water Tower

Proceedings of Offshore Europe, 1989
ABSTRACT This paper describes the TRILITE Super Satellite Platform (TRISS), a light 3-legged cost-effective fixed jacket substructure concept supporting a simple topside facility intended for unmanned operation. An overall objective has been to develop a realistic alternative to sub-sea concepts in water depths down to app-rox.

A New Approach to Outcome Prediction in Trauma: A Comparison With the TRISS Model

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2006
The Trauma Audit & Research Network (TARN) has been using the TRISS methodology since 1989. Its database contains 200,000 hospital admissions from 110 hospitals over the country. To improve outcome prediction, a revision of the current model became necessary. Our model tried to overcome some of the concerns of the trauma community, namely missing data,

TRISS analysis of trauma care: a Yugoslav perspective

Injury, 1992
The TRISS method has been claimed to be useful in the evaluation of trauma care. The aim of this study was to compare our data with Major Trauma Outcome Study (MTOS) results in North America, and to note differences and strive to improve care in our system.

Evaluation of trauma care: validation of the TRISS method in an Italian ICU

Intensive Care Medicine, 1996
To validate the TRISS method as an audit system on a group of patients with severe trauma admitted to an Italian general intensive care unit (ICU).Prospective, cohort study of consecutive admissions to the ICU.A 6-bed general ICU in a 500-bed general hospital.190 patients with severe trauma admitted from January 1992 to December 1993 were considered ...

Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) Coefficients 2009 Revision

Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2010
Currently used Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) coefficients, which measure probability of survival (PS), were derived from the Major Trauma Outcome Study (MTOS) in 1995 and are now unlikely to be optimal. This study aims to estimate new TRISS coefficients using a contemporary database of injured patients presenting to emergency departments in ...

TRISS METHODOLOGY IN PENETRATING TRAUMA: 198 PATIENTS AT BARAGWANATH HOSPITAL

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1993
TRISS methodology is a statistical technique by which the probability of survival in injury can be estimated. It combines an anatomical index of injury severity (the injury severity score, ISS), a physiological index (the revised trauma score, RTS), age and the mechanism of injury.

EMTC - Er Moster Trisse Cool?

Tidsskriftet Dansk Musikterapi, 2004
Den 16. juni 2004, dagen inden den Europæiske musikterapikonference i Jyväskylä, mødes ca. 20 repræsentanter fra de europæiske lande til et EMTC-møde. EMTC - endnu en forkortelse at forholde sig til - står for noget så Enormt Meget Trivielt (eller Chokerende? ) som European Music Therapy Confederation.
