Score (TRISS) A Severity Characterization of
Trauma (ASCOT) International Classification of
Diseases Injury Severity Score (ICISS)
![Page 6: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Glasgow Coma Score• The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is the
standard measure used to quantify level of consciousness in head injured patients.
• Widely used in scoring systems and treatment protocols.
• Used as a initial assessment tool and for continual re-evaluation of head injured patients
Teasdale G., Jennett B., LANCET (ii) 81-83, 1974.
![Page 7: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• The GCS is scored between 3 and 15, 3 being the worst, and 15 the best. • GCS is composed of three parameters : –Best Eye Response (4)–Best Verbal Response (5)–Best Motor Response (6)
• A GCS of:–13 or higher correlates with a mild brain
injury–9 to 12 is a moderate injury–8 or less a severe brain injury

Glasgow Paediatric Coma Score
• The Paediatric GCS is scored between 3 and 15, 3 being the worst, and 15 the best.
• It is composed of three parameters : Best Eye Response, Best Verbal Response, Best Motor Response
![Page 12: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Best Eye Response. (4) –No eye opening. –Eye opening to pain. –Eye opening to verbal command. –Eyes open spontaneously.
![Page 13: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Best Verbal Response. (5) –No vocal response –Inconsolable, agitated –Inconsistently consolable, moaning. –Cries but is consolable, inappropriate
interactions. –Smiles, oriented to sounds, follows
objects, interacts.

• Total GCS=Motor response + Verbal response + Eye opening
• Interpretation brain injury –severe <9–moderate 9-12–minor 13 and above
![Page 16: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Note that the phrase 'GCS of 11' is essentially meaningless, and it is important to break the figure down into its components, such as E3V3M5 = GCS 11.
![Page 17: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Glasgow Coma scale
• Pros:– Reliably predicts outcomes for diffuse
and focal lesions• Cons:– It does not take into account • focal or lateralizing signs• diffuse metabolic processes• intoxication

Revised Trauma Score (RTS)• Introduction –most widely used pre-hospital field
triage tool• Variables –Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)–systolic blood pressure –respiratory rate
![Page 19: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

• RTS=Glasgow coma scale score + systolic blood pressure score + respiratory rate score
• Interpretation: lower score indicates higher severity
• RTS <4 proposed for transfer of the patient to trauma center
![Page 21: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Revised Trauma Score (RTS)
• Pros:– useful during triage to determine which
patients need to be transported to a trauma center
• Cons:– can underestimate injury severity in
patients injured in one system
![Page 23: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) Score
• SIRS is a generalized response to trauma characterized by – an increase in cytokines– an increase in complement– an increase in hormones
• It is a marker for an individual's generalized response to trauma that likely has a genetic predisposition
![Page 24: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• associated with conditions such as –disseminated intravascular coagulopathy
(DIC)– acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)– renal failure–multisystem organ failure– shock
![Page 25: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Variables –heart rate > 90 beats/min–WBC count <4000cells/mm³ OR >12,000
cells/mm³– respiratory rate > 20 or PaCO2 < 32mm
(4.3kPa)– temperature less than 36 degrees or greater
than 38 degrees
![Page 26: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Calculation –each component (heart rate, WBC
count, respiratory rate, temperature) is given 1 point if it meets the above criteria
• Interpretation –A score of 2 or more is consistent
with SIRS
![Page 27: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Mangled Extremity Severity Score• Described by Johansen et al (1990)• Components include:– Skeletal / soft-tissue injury – Limb ischemia – Shock– Age
• Interpretation:– a MESS score of greater than or equal to 7 had a 100%
predictable value for amputationClin Orthop Relat Res. 1990 Jul;(256):80-6
Johansen K et alLimb salvage versus amputation. Preliminary results of the Mangled Extremity
Severity Score
![Page 28: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Skeletal / soft-tissue injury – Low energy (stab; simple fracture; pistol gunshot
wound): 1 – Medium energy (open or multiple fractures,
dislocation): 2 – High energy (high speed MVA or rifle GSW): 3 – Very high energy (high speed trauma + gross
contamination): 4 Limb ischemia – Pulse reduced or absent but perfusion normal: 1*– Pulseless; paresthesias, diminished capillary refill: 2*– Cool, paralyzed, insensate, numb: 3* * Score doubled for ischemia > 6 hours
![Page 29: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Shock –Systolic BP always > 90 mm Hg: 0 –Hypotensive transiently: 1 –Persistent hypotension: 2
Age (years) < 30: 0 30-50: 1 > 50: 2
![Page 30: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Mangled Extremity Severity Score
• Interpretation –A score of 7 or more is highly predictive of
amputation• Pros:–High specificity for predicting amputation
• Cons:– Low sensitivity for predicting amputation
![Page 31: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ganga Hospital Open Injury Severity Score
• A score for predicting salvage and outcome in Gustilo type III A and type III B open tibial fractures
• Limb injury severity scores are designed to assess severely injured limbs and help the surgeon in deciding salvage. The existing scoring systems have the disadvantage of being designed to assess limb injuries with vascular injuries and are not very sensitive when used for III B injuries.
Dr. S. Rajasekaran et alJ Bone Joint Surg Br, October 2006
![Page 32: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Ganga Hospital Open Injury Severity Score was evolved to overcome the above disadvantages.
• The severity of injury to the covering structures, skeletal structures and musculotendinous & nerve units were assessed individually on an incremental score of one to five.
• Seven Co-morbid conditions known to influence the management and prognosis were each given a score of two.
![Page 33: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• The score comprises of following components:–Covering structures: skin and fascia (1-5)–Skeletal structures: bone and joints (1-5)–Functional tissues: musculotendinous
(MT) and nerve units (1-5)–Co-morbid conditions (0-14)
![Page 34: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
![Page 35: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
![Page 36: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
![Page 37: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

• The total score was used to predict salvage and a score of 14 had the highest specificity and sensitivity for indicating amputation.• The individual scores for covering
and functional tissues were also found to offer specific guidelines in the reconstruction protocols of these complex injury.
![Page 39: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Injury Severity Score (ISS)
• The Injury Severity Score (ISS) is an established medical score to assess trauma severity.
• It correlates with mortality, morbidity and hospitalization time after trauma.
• The AIS Committee of the “Association for the Advancement of Automotive Medicine” (AAAM) designed and improves upon the scale.
![Page 40: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• It is the– first scoring system to be based on anatomic criteria– defines injury severity for comparative purposes
• To calculate an ISS for an injured person, the body is divided into six ISS body regions:– Head or neck - including cervical spine– Face - including the facial skeleton, nose, mouth,
eyes and ears– Chest - thoracic spine and diaphragm– Abdomen or pelvic contents - abdominal organs and
lumbar spine– Extremities or pelvic girdle - pelvic skeleton– External
![Page 41: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Calculation is based upon the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) grades – 0 - no injury– 1 - minor– 2 - moderate– 3 - severe (not life-threatening)– 4 - severe (life-threatening, survival probable)– 5 - severe (critical, survival uncertain)– 6 - maximal, possibly fatal
![Page 42: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• ISS = sum of squares for the highest AIS grades in the three most severely injured ISS body regions –ISS = A2 + B2 + C2 •where A, B, C are the AIS scores of the
three most severely injured ISS body regions
–scores range from 1 to 75 • If an injury is assigned an AIS of 6
(unsurvivable injury), the ISS score is automatically assigned to 75
![Page 43: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
![Page 44: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• It is used to define the term major trauma. A major trauma (or polytrauma) is defined as the Injury Severity Score being greater than 15.• Interpretation ISS > 15 associated
with mortality of 10%
![Page 45: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• Pros:– integrates anatomic areas of injury in formulating a
prediction of outcomes • Cons:– difficult to calculate during initial evaluation and
resuscitation in emergency room– difficult to predict outcomes for patients with severe
single body area injury • New Injury Severity Score (NISS) overcomes this
deficit• New Injury Severity Score (NISS) – takes three highest scores regardless of anatomic area– more predictive of complications and mortality than ISS
![Page 46: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Modified Injury Severity Score (MISS)
– similar to ISS but for pediatric trauma– categorizes body into 5 areas, instead of 6– sum of the squares for the highest injury score
grades in the three most severely injured body regions
![Page 47: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Trauma Score - Injury Severity Score : TRISS
• The TRISS determines the probability of survival using the variables:– ISS–RTS–Patient's age (Age Index)
• Age Index is:–0 if the patient is below 54 years of age–1 if 55 years and over
![Page 48: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• TRISS determines the probability of survival (Ps) of a patient from the ISS and RTS using the following formulae:
• Where 'b' is calculated from:
![Page 49: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• b0 to b3 are coefficients which are different for blunt and penetrating trauma.
• If the patient is less than 15, the blunt coefficients are used regardless of mechanism.

Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II )
Components:(1) Acute physiology score (APS): Rectal temp,mean arterial pressure, hematocrit WBC, oxygenation, arterial pH, serum potassium, CRE, GCS
(2) Age points: 44,54,64,74
(3) Chronic health points : History of severe organ insufficiency OR immunocompromised, nonoperative patient, emergency postoperative patientelective postoperative patient
APACHE II score == (acute physiology score) + (age points) + (chronic health points)
![Page 52: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
• The data for the acute physiology is collected during the initial 24 hour period after ICU admission.
• The worst (most deranged) physiologic value is selected for grading
• Minimum score: 0• Maximum score: 71• Interpretation:
An increasing score is associated with an increasing risk of hospital death
![Page 53: Trauma scoring systems](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/58f9b19f760da3da068bc28a/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
• Interpretation:An increasing score is associated with an increasing risk of
hospital death
