Abstract

To evaluate the effectiveness of the 1985 revision of the Abbreviated Injury Scale in calculating Injury Severity Scores in patients suffering penetrating injury, all patients thus presenting to a Level I Trauma Center over a 12-month period were evaluated. Blunt trauma victims were scored using AIS-85. All penetrating injury patients were scored using both AIS-85 and AIS-80.
