Glasgow Coma Scale and Its Components on Admission: Are They Valuable Prognostic Tools in Acute Mixed Drug Poisoning?
Table 4
Areas under the ROC curves of each component as well as total GCS.
| Component | AUC ± SE (95% CI) | Cutoff point | Sensitivity (95% CI) | Specificity (95% CI) |
| Motor | (0.85–0.95) | equal or less than 5 | 90.91 (70.8–98.6) | 81.54 (73.8–87.8) | Verbal | (0.87–0.96) | equal or less than 3 | 90.91 (70.8–98.6) | 90.00 (83.5–94.6) | Eye | (0.83–0.93) | equal or less than 2 | 86.36 (65.1–96.9) | 89.23 (82.6–94.0) | GCS | (0.88–0.96) | equal or less than 10 | 90.91 (70.8–98.6) | 92.31 (86.3–96.2) |
