Comparing Two Injury Scores for Trauma Patients
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of measuring how serious an injury is (NISS and ISS) to see which one better predicts if a trauma patient will survive. It may help doctors make faster, more accurate decisions in the emergency room.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were brought to the emergency room within 6 hours of your injury.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- Your main injury is not from burns.
- You do not have a terminal illness (like advanced cancer) that is unrelated to your injury.
- You are not pregnant, or if you are, the study is not focused on mother-baby outcomes.
- You (or a legal guardian) agree to join the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study is testing a new way to quickly predict the risk of death after a serious injury. Researchers want to see if a simpler scoring method (the New Trauma Score) works as well or better than the current standard. If you come to the emergency department with a traumatic injury, this study may help improve how doctors predict outcomes.
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 tests a new artificial intelligence system designed to help doctors quickly predict which trauma patients are at highest risk during emergency treatment. Researchers want to see if the AI tool improves decision-making in the emergency room.
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 compares three different scoring systems (EMTRAS, REMS, and GAP) used to quickly assess how severe a trauma injury is. The goal is to see which score works best at predicting outcomes, which could help doctors make faster decisions.
