Summary

In this study, it is aimed to determine the prognostic value of GCS-P and the GCS-P score, which is formed by assigning a verbal score, in patients with traumatic brain injury, where all parameters can be evaluated. In the model to be created, a new total score will be obtained with Motor score + Eye Response + assigned verbal Score-Pupil score and this score will be compared with GCS and GCS-Pupil score.

Conditions

• Brain Injuries, Traumatic

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	GCS-Pupil score	GCS+attributed verbal score- Step 1 to obtain pupillary score: * Patients with a motor (M) and eye-opening response (E) total score between 2 and 6 are assigned a verbal score of +1 * Patients with an M+E score of 7 are assigned a verbal score of +2 * Patients with an M+E score of 8-9 are assigned a verbal score of +4 * Patients with an M+E score of 10 are assigned a verbal score of +5 GCS+attributed verbal score- Step 2 to obtain the pupillary score: The total score is obtained by subtracting the pupil score from the score obtained in the 1st step. Pupil score is scored as follows; * 0 points if both pupils react to light, * 1 point if a pupil does not react to light and has anisocoria, * 2 points if both pupils do not react to light
