The Injury Severity Score (ISS) is a medical score used to assess trauma severity in patients with multiple injuries. It is calculated by assigning and summing up the square of the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) scores of the three most severely injured body regions. The ISS helps determine the extent of a patient's injuries and is often used to predict outcomes and guide treatment decisions.
