Glasgow coma scale free for Android

Glasgow coma scale free app for android description: The glasgow coma scale or gcs is a neurological scale that aims to give a reliable objective way of recording the conscious state of a person for initial as well as subsequent assessment.
A patient is assessed against the criteria of the scale and the resulting points give a patient score between 3 (indicating deep unconsciousness) and either 14 (original scale) or 15 (the more widely used modified or revised scale).
Gcs was initially used to assess level of consciousness after head injury and the scale is now used by first aid ems and doctors as being applicable to all acute medical and trauma patients.
In hospitals it is also used in monitoring chronic patients in intensive care.
The scale was published in 1974 by graham teasdale and bryan j.
Jennett professors of neurosurgery at the university of glasgow 39 s institute of neurological sciences at the city 39 s southern general hospital.
