Outcome and Prognostic Factors in Head Injuries With an Admission Glasgow Coma Scale Score of 3

Abstract

Patients with head injury with an admission Glasgow Coma Scale score of 3 have a poor prognosis. Mechanism of injury, head AIS, hypotension on admission, and age play a critical role in outcome. These patients are an important source of organ donation and should be evaluated and resuscitated aggressively.
