18.3 Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)
The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) can be used on comatose patients induced by a variety of causes to express their
state of consciousness objectively. GCS scoring involves three aspects: eye opening, verbal response and motor
response. The three scores add up to the GCS score.
GCS scoring is intended for adult and pediatric patients.
The GCS score is provided for reference only. Please make a diagnosis in combination with other clinical
evidence.
GCS scoring is not intended for comatose patients induced by sedative, muscle relaxant, artificial airway,
drunkenness or status epilepticus.
GCS scoring is not intended for people with impaired language, deaf-mute or mental disorder.
GCS scoring is prone to score deviation when used on children under 5 years old or the unresponsive
elderly.
