A Simple Mathematical Modification of TRISS Markedly Improves Calibration
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2002TRISS 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 ...

Trauma audit--the use of TRISS.
Health trends, 1988The 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.

Penetrating trauma audit--TRISS analysis.
South African journal of surgery. Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir chirurgie, 1993Quality assurance in trauma care is of major importance in assessing the efficacy of a trauma service and in identifying areas for improvement. Trauma scores and the TRISS methodology are at present the most accurate tools for quality assurance purposes.

TRISS analysis of trauma care: a Yugoslav perspective
Injury, 1992The 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.

TRISS UNEXPECTED SURVIVORS-A STATISTICAL PHENOMENON OR A CLINICAL REALITY?
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1992Data 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).

Incorporating Recent Advances To Make the TRISS Approach Universally Available
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2006The Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS), used to garner predictions of survival from the Injury Severity Score (ISS), the Revised Trauma Score (RTS, for physiologic reserve), and age is difficult for many trauma facilities to compute because it requires 8 to 10 variables and ISS depends on the specialized Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) scale ...

Trauma Outcome Analysis of Two Canadian Centres Using the TRISS Method
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1990In this retrospective study, the TRISS method of trauma care analysis is used to compare trauma care at the Hamilton General Hospital (HGH) and the Ottawa Civic Hospital (OCH) with the standards reported in the Major Trauma Outcome Study (MTOS). A total of 274 adult patients with multiple-system injuries were studied; their demographic data, Trauma ...

COMPARISON BETWEEN TRISS AND ASCOT METHODS IN CONTROLLING FOR INJURY SEVERITY
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1991ASCOT was developed by Champion et al. to address known limitations to TRISS. The present research attempted to validate ASCOT using an independent trauma registry. Data were collected by the Institute for Trauma and Emergency Care (ITEC), New York Medical College, between July 1, 1987 and June 30, 1989; 5685 trauma patients admitted to three level I ...

Mortality prediction in paediatric trauma: comparison of PRISM and TRISS
Clinical Intensive Care, 1996Objective: To compare the ability of Paediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) and TRISS analysis in predicting mortality in the same cohort of paediatric trauma patients. Design: Retrospective review of patients' medical records. Setting: Multi-disciplinary paediatric intensive care unit at a tertiary care paediatric hospital.
