Prognostic Value of Pediatric GCS-Pupil Score in Pediatric Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury

NCT05419739 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 128

Last updated 2022-06-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There are studies reporting that the survival rate in pediatric patients with abnormal pupillary response is 23% and that pupillary response is effective on mortality and patient outcomes. Studies in the literature examining the effect of pupillary response on mortality and outcome in pediatric patients with traumatic brain injury reported that bilaterally dilated pupils were associated with a higher mortality rate.

Considering the literature results, we believe that obtaining the GCS-Pupil score by combining GCS and pupillary reaction in pediatric patients with traumatic brain injury will be effective in predicting patient outcomes.

Glasgow coma scale

This scale, which consists of three parameters, includes the best eye response (1-4 points), the best verbal response (1-5 points), and the best motor response (1-6 points). Total score; It is calculated as Eye Response + Verbal Response + Motor Response and takes a value between 3-15 points. The severity of head trauma is evaluated in three categories: mild (GCS 13-15 points), moderate (GCS 9-12 points), and severe (GCS ≤ 8 points).
