Article Synopsis
- The modified Trauma-Induced Coagulopathy Clinical Score (mTICCS) is a new scoring system aimed at quickly identifying patients who may need a massive transfusion after sustaining trauma.
- A study tested the effectiveness of six scoring systems, including mTICCS, in a dataset of 479 severely injured patients to determine which was most reliable for predicting early transfusion needs.
- Results showed that the TASH score had the best overall accuracy, while mTICCS also performed well and could be a practical tool in prehospital settings to help expedite diagnosis and treatment.
