متن کاملPredictive Value of Glasgow Coma Score and Full Outline of Unresponsiveness Score on the Outcome of Multiple Trauma Patients.
INTRODUCTION The Full Outline of Unresponsiveness (FOUR) score was developed to compensate for the limitations of Glasgow coma score (GCS) in recent years. This study aimed to assess the predictive value of GCS and FOUR score on the outcome of multiple trauma patients admitted to the emergency department. PATIENTS AND METHODS The present prospective cross-sectional study was conducted on mult...
متن کاملInitial Glasgow Coma Scale score predicts outcome following thrombolysis for posterior circulation stroke.
BACKGROUND Randomized trials of thrombolytic stroke treatment have either excluded patients with posterior circulation ischemia or used inclusion criteria making enrollment of these patients less likely. Consequently, there is less published information on thrombolytic therapy for posterior circulation stroke. OBJECTIVE To determine effective thrombolytic treatment times for posterior circula...
