Abstract

Although the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) has been a widely utilized and generally powerful injury scaling system for trauma researchers, it has had serious deficiencies in the area of head injury. The AIS 1980 revision (AIS-80) has been substantially modified for the coding of brain injury. This report provides the first utilization of the AIS-80 in head injured patients.
