“…We found maximum mortality in the ISS group 25-40 (n=63), whereas the ISS group 16-24 had the greatest number of survivors (n=12). Recent studies showed similar findings [8,12,17,[22][23][24]. Garkaz et al [25] showed a higher mean ISS for non-survivors (56.32 ± 25.02) than our study (28.74 ± 8.38), but the explanations for the findings were not given.…”

“…In the current study, most of victims were males. Similar observations were reported by Rizk et al (2020), Tekyol et al (2020) and Bhandari et al (2022). Male predominance might be because males have frequent outdoor visits to earn for their families.…”

“…Both ISS & NISS constitute anatomical scoring systems that provide numerical description of injuries severity which in turn is associated with clinical condition and mortality in traumatized patients (Lee et al, 2016;Rizk et al, 2020). In the current study both ISS & NISS were significantly higher in pedestrians than in drivers.…”

“…Similar to our results, Akhavan and Mohammadian [ 21 ], who conducted a study on 70 polytrauma patients aiming to evaluate the performance of ISS and RTS scoring systems in trauma patients, reported that ISS scoring system performed better than the RTS in predicting of mortality. In contrast to these results, Rizk et al [ 22 ], who conducted a study on fifty patients aiming to find a relation between initial scores and their outcome, reported that RTS was better than ISS in predicting mortality among polytrauma patients. This may be due to that the patients with similar injury severity score may have totally different RTS score.…”
