A trauma patient has E=2, V=4, M=5. What is the Glasgow Coma Scale score?

9 11 10 12

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Glasgow Coma Scale scores come from adding three separate responses: eye opening, verbal, and motor. In this case, eye opening to pain is 2, verbal response is 4 (confused conversation), and motor response is 5 (localizes pain). Add them: 2 + 4 + 5 = 11. The scale runs from 3 to 15, with higher numbers indicating better neurologic function. An 11 sits in the moderate range, used to monitor neurologic status in trauma patients over time.
