TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - The Glasgow Assessment Schedule: clinical and research assessment of head injury outcome JO - International rehabilitation medicine A1 - Livingston, M. G. A1 - Livingston, H. M. SP - 145 EP - 149 VL - 7 IS - 4 N2 - A new rating instrument, the Glasgow Assessment Schedule (GAS), is described for the evaluation of head injury outcome. The instrument, which has been used in samples of head-injured men, provides for a comprehensive assessment, and can distinguish mildly and severely injured patients and rate change over time. Inter-rater reliability and concurrent validity with a global rating scale has been found to be satisfactory. It is expected that the GAS will mainly be of use in clinical and research settings in which longer-term management is envisaged.
