Comparing a new injury severity score to older methods
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares a new way of measuring how severe multiple injuries are (the EISS score) with two older methods (ISS and NISS). It aims to see if the EISS score is better at predicting outcomes for people with injuries in more than one body area.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been injured in more than one area of your body (not just a single injury).
- You do not have a long-term disease that is in its final stages.
- You agree to take part in the study.

This study is testing a new scoring system to predict which severely injured patients might develop dangerous drops in blood pressure shortly after arriving at the emergency room. By using simple checks like heart rate, blood tests, and an ultrasound, doctors hope to identify high-risk patients earlier so they can act faster.
Researchers want to see if certain injury scores can predict how well trauma patients will do. You may be asked to join this study if you come to the emergency room with an injury and agree to have your scores calculated.
This study is testing how well a new scoring system (called NISS) measures the severity of injuries after a blunt trauma, like a car crash or fall. By using this score soon after you arrive, doctors hope to better predict your recovery and care needs.
This trial compares two different scoring systems used in the emergency room to assess how severe a child's injury is. The goal is to see which score better helps doctors decide how to care for injured children.
This study compares two simple scoring tools (MGAP and GAP) to see which better predicts outcomes in people with injuries to more than one body area. If you or a loved one has multiple traumatic injuries and arrives at the ER within 6 hours, this trial may help improve how doctors assess care.
This study is testing a new way to predict how likely a trauma patient is to survive, using a new scoring system called the New Trauma Score. If you've been injured and are in the emergency department, this score may help doctors make better treatment decisions.
