Comparing two trauma scores for multiple injury patients
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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.
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 tests whether a regional trauma care system improves outcomes for people with severe injuries. You may be eligible if you arrive quickly after a serious trauma and meet the severity criteria.
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.
This trial compares two scoring systems (RTS and MGAP) to see which one better predicts recovery, need for intensive care, or complications in people who arrive at the hospital within 6 hours of a traumatic injury.
