About

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.
