Abstract

Scoring systems are nowadays said to be helpful in decision-making in preclinical and early clinical treatment of multiple trauma patients. To evaluate the importance of these scores in daily routine, we analysed the scores routinely used in our department at the Hannover Medical School. We present three scoring systems: the Polytrauma Score, the Pelvis Score, and the Hannover Fracture Scale. All of these have certain qualities relevant to the aspects of decision-making and prognostic value. The evaluation demonstrates that these scoring systems are genuinely helpful, especially for the inexperienced.
