16 Q 22 Glasgow coma scale Eyes Verbal Motor Glasgow Coma Scale Opens eyes in Opens eyes Does not Opens eyes response to in response open eyes spontaneously painful stimuli to voice N/A Makes no sounds Makes no movements Incomprehensible sounds Extension to painful stimuli (decerebrate response) Utters inappropriate words Abnormal flexion to painful stimuli (decorticate response) Confused, disoriented Flexion / Withdrawal to painful stimuli Oriented, converses normally Localizes painful stimuli N/A N/A Obeys commands The scale comprises three tests: eye, verbal and motor responses. The three values separately as well as their sum are considered. The lowest possible GCS (the sum) is 3 (deep coma or death), while the highest is 15 (fully awake person). 16 of 23
