Using a new score to predict survival after brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a special score, called the fREMS, can help predict if someone with a traumatic brain injury is likely to die. Doctors will use your medical records to see if this score works well.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have had a traumatic brain injury and be assessed in the hospital.
- Your hospital records must include the results of a FOUR Score test (a check of brain function) and other vital signs like blood pressure and breathing rate.
- The study needs to know the final outcome: whether you survived or passed away.
- You cannot have been transferred from another hospital after getting initial treatment.
- The initial assessment must have been done before any death occurred.

This study looks at whether a simple scoring tool can predict the chance of survival or death in people who have experienced a traumatic injury. It aims to help doctors make quicker and better decisions in emergency situations.
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 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.
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 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 looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.
