TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - New Injury Severity Score as a predictor of in-hospital mortality in trauma patients JO - Ugeskrift for Laeger A1 - Mitropolskaya, Sofia A1 - Thomassen, Sophia Sejersdal A1 - Udby, Peter Muhareb SP - V11220704 EP - V11220704 VL - 185 IS - 19 N2 - The New Injury Severity Score (NISS) is a tool developed to easily assess the injury severity for a trauma patient. This review analysed how well the NISS predicts in-hospital mortality for trauma patients by assessment of 11 observational studies. NISS was found to be a good overall predictor of in-hospital mortality in blunt as well as penetrating trauma cases. However, additional high-quality studies are required in order to draw definite conclusions in a Scandinavian hospital setting and patient population.
