• TITLE: Neuroanatomical Basis of Glasgow Coma Scale—A Reappraisal

  AUTHORS: Sunil Munakomi, Bijoy Mohan Kumar

  KEYWORDS: Glasgow Coma Scale, Anatomy

  JOURNAL NAME: Neuroscience and Medicine, Vol.6 No.3, September 8, 2015

  ABSTRACT: Glasgow coma scale is the most cited paper in neurosurgery. It has vast implications in the fields of neurology and neurosurgery. But lack of proper understanding in the neuro-anatomical basis of the score is the Achilles heel in proper utilization of the same. Herein we review the anatomical aspects behind each variable in the score. We also discuss common limitations of the score and highlight future directives to limit the same.
