FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method involves evaluating prognostic signs and calculating their prognostic weight. Consciousness disorders and diagnosis set at prehospital stage are used as the prognostic signs. Calculations are carried out from formula: lethal outcome %= -15.99+19.1•C+14.7•DS-2.79•C•DS, where C is the ranged consciousness disorder degree, DS is the diagnosis set prehospital stage. The higher is the value, the higher is lethal outcome probability.
EFFECT: accelerated and simplified prognosis method.
