The Prognostic Value of Admission Glasgow Coma Scale and AVPU in Acute Drug Poisoning Patients

The Effects of Lipid Emulsion on the Improvement of Glasgow Coma Scale and Reduction of Blood Glucose Level in the Setting of Acute Non-Local Drug Poisoning: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Our aim was to evaluate the effect of intravenous intralipid administration as an antidote on the poisoned patients' Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), hemodynamic parameters, arterial blood gas analysis, and routine metabolic profile tests (i.e. urea, glucose, sodium, and potassium) in the setting of non-local anesthetic drug overdose. Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, a tota...

The correlation between blood leukocyte count and the level of consciousness in head injured patients

This study was performed to define the correlation between the level of consciousness based on Glasgow coma scale ( GCS), Glasgow outcome scale( GOS) and leukocyte count. Two hundred and thirty three patients ( female: 48, male: 185) ranged between 1-75 years old were studied. The results showed that there was a negative correlation between increasing leukocyte count and  GCS ( n=233.r= .0.3, p...

Randomized controlled trial of a scoring aid to improve Glasgow Coma Scale scoring by emergency medical services providers.

STUDY OBJECTIVE Emergency medical services (EMS) personnel frequently use the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to assess injured and critically ill patients. This study assesses the accuracy of EMS providers' GCS scoring, as well as the improvement in GCS score assessment with the use of a scoring aid. METHODS This randomized, controlled study was conducted in the emergency department (ED) of an urba...

اثرات تعامل آسیب مغزی تروماتیک و مصرف مواد بر مقیاس اغمای گلاسکو (GCS) و مقیاس پیامد گلاسکو (GOS)

Background: Knowledge of the substance use outcomes on clinical-hospital characteristics in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be useful in preventing their long term complications. Therefore, this research was conducted to study interaction effects of TBI and substance use on Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Methods: 185 TBI patients with mean age 37.46&plu...
