Simplified Alternative to the TRISS Method for Resource‐Constrained Settings

World Journal of Surgery, 2010
AbstractBackgroundWe developed simple methods of risk adjustment for evaluating the quality of injury care (predicting survival probabilities of the injured) by fully utilizing routinely collected data in injury surveillance and clinical practices. Widely used methods of risk adjustment require additional data that are difficult to collect in resource ...

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 ...

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.

The Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) revised

Injury, 2011
The Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) remains the most commonly used tool for benchmarking trauma fatality outcome. Recently, it was demonstrated that the predictive power of TRISS could be substantially improved by re-classifying the component variables and treating the variable categories nominally.

Penetrating trauma audit--TRISS analysis.

South African journal of surgery. Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir chirurgie, 1993
Quality 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, 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.

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).

Incorporating Recent Advances To Make the TRISS Approach Universally Available

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2006
The 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 ...
