The outcome in 159 cases of head injury was evaluated in terms of the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, age, and computed tomographic (CT) findings. Children below the age of 10 accounted for 30% of the head-injured patients, and 69% were Saudis. 81% of the patients had a GCS score of 8 or higher, and in this group the outcomes were favorable. In contrast, 19% had an initial GCS score of 7 or less, tended to be older, and had worse outcomes, with a mortality rate of 68%. The initial GCS score, age, presence or absence of associated injuries, and the degree of midline shift according to CT were useful prognostic indices in patients with head injury.
