.2 - Moderate
.3 - Serious
.4 - Severe
.5 - Critical
.6 - Maximum (not fatal, currently untreatable)
A .6 is automatically an ISS = 75, code other
injuries but don't add to this highest ISS total
What does the AIS severity reflect? - ANSWER- AIS severity reflects the severity
of one injury for a patient 25-40 years old with no co-morbidities and with timely
appropriate care.

lumbar--5, sacrum—5 (fused), coccyx (tailbone)—2, 3, or 4.
Note: C1 = Atlas, C2 = Axis and has a "dens" (spike-like projection) that projects
upward on which the atlas rotates.
,Name the parts of the vertebrae - ANSWER- Vertebral body, spinous process,
transverse process, pedicle, foramen, lamina, superior and inferior articular
processes.
Name the upper extremity bones - ANSWER- Shoulder girdle with scapula and
clavicle.
Humerus, Ulna, Radius, Hand, Fingers, joints
Name the bones of the hand - ANSWER- Carpal bones x 8 (scaphoid, locate,
triquetrum, pisiform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate), metacarpals x 5, and
phalanges (proximal x 5, middle x 5, distal x 5).
Name the bones of the lower extremity - ANSWER- Pelvic girdle
Pelvis: Ilium, iliac crest, acetabulum, ischium, pubis, sacrum and sacroiliac joints.
Legs: femur, patella (knee cap), tibia, fibula.
Joints: Hip, knee, and ankle.
Ankle Bones: Lateral malleolus, medial malleolus
Foot: Tarsal bones (7), calcaneus (heel bone), talus, cuboid, navicular, first, second
and third cuneiform), metatarsals, phalanges.
What are the 3 components to GCS? - ANSWER- Eye, Verbal, Motor
Name the 4 stages of Eye GCS - ANSWER- 1 no eye opening
2 opens to pain
3 opens to verbal command
4 opens spontaneously
Name the 5 stages of Verbal GCS - ANSWER- 1 no verbal response
2 incomprehensible
3 inappropriate
4 confused
5 oriented
Name the 6 stages of Motor GCS - ANSWER- 1 no movement
, 2 move to pain, extension
3 move to pain, flexion
4 withdraw to pain
5 localize to pain
6 move on command
What 5 components go into calculating Trauma Score? - ANSWER- GCS, Systolic
BP, Respiratory Rate, Capillary Refill, and Respiratory Effort.
What does TRISS determine? - ANSWER- Survivability
What 3 components make up TRISS? - ANSWER- ISS, RTS and patient's age.
What is the Z score? - ANSWER- the z score is the statistical significance of the
outcome of TRISS. . If z is more negative than −1.96, significantly more patients
died than were predicted. If z exceeds +1.96, significantly more patients survived
than predicted
What is the w score? - ANSWER- The w score measures the clinical significance
of the outcome. The w score represents the difference between the number of
patients actually surviving and the number of survivors expected per 100 patients
treated. Thus, a w value of +4 indicates that 4 more patients survived per 100
patients than would have been predicted.
What is OIS - ANSWER- Organ Injury Scoring - The scale is graded 1 through 6
for each organ, 1 being least severe and 5 the most severe injury from which the
patient may survive. Grade 6 injuries are by definition not salvageable.
Name the 4 stages of Eye GCS pediatric - ANSWER- 1 No eye opening.
2 Eye opening to pain.
3 Eye opening to verbal command.
4 Eyes open spontaneously.
Name the 5 stages of Verbal GCS pediatric - ANSWER- 1 No vocal response
2 Inconsolable, agitated
