The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is a crucial tool used by medical professionals worldwide to assess a person’s level of consciousness after a head injury. Developed in 1974 by Professors Graham Teasdale and Bryan Jennett at the University of Glasgow, this scale provides a reliable and objective way to gauge the severity of brain injuries and guide subsequent medical treatment. The GCS is divided into three main categories: Eye Opening, Verbal Response, and Motor Response. Each category is scored separately, and the sum of these scores determines the overall severity of the injury. Let’s delve deeper into these categories to understand how the GCS works: https://bit.ly/4dj1gaR
