Figure 2 Outcomes at 3 months after injury
Outcomes in terms of Glasgow outcome scale (GOS; A) and GOS-extended paediatrics (GOS-E Peds; B). A GOS of 5 and a GOS-E Peds of 8 corresponds to mortality; a score of 1 corresponds to normal functioning for both measures. p values are for comparison between therapeutic hypothermia and normothermia.
