What is the Revised Trauma Score Calculator & How does it work?
The Revised Trauma Score (RTS) is a scoring system used to assess the severity of trauma in emergency situations. It helps prioritize patients for treatment based on their physiological status.
The RTS consists of five parameters: systolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, Glasgow Coma Scale score, heart rate, and age. Each parameter is scored from 1 to 3, with lower scores indicating more severe conditions.

RTS = BP + RR + GCS + HR + Age
BP = Systolic Blood Pressure Score
RR = Respiratory Rate Score
GCS = Glasgow Coma Scale Score
HR = Heart Rate Score
Age = Age Score
RR = Respiratory Rate Score
GCS = Glasgow Coma Scale Score
HR = Heart Rate Score
Age = Age Score
