Beschrijving

The Trauma Score, a physiologic injury severity score that numerically summarizes assessments of circulatory, respiratory, and central nervous system functions, has been revised. The revision includes the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and respiratory rate (RR) and excludes capillary refill and respiratory expansion. Two versions of the revised score have been developed, one for triage (T-RTS) and another for use in outcome evaluations and to control for injury severity (RTS). T-RTS is the sum of coded values of GCS, SBP, and RR; RTS is a weighted sum of coded variable values.
