title: [Clinical assessment of the severity of craniocerebral injury].
abstract: Assessment of overall patient responsiveness (coma grading) is essential in the characterization of craniocerebral injuries and grading of their severity. The combination of psychological and anatomical scores and additional examinations has yielded patient characterization which more accurately relates to outcome than when those scores are used alone. The aim of this study was to survey the methods of craniocerebral injury evaluation in neurosurgical practice.
