This study compares the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Alert-Verbal-Pain-Unresponsive (AVPU) scale in a pediatric emergency department setting, finding lower performance of the GCS-AVPU crosswalk compared to prehospital data. The research involved 295,247 pediatric encounters, revealing high accuracy but moderate agreement in consciousness assessment. The findings aim to enhance communication and predictive modeling in clinical settings by establishing a relevant crosswalk for these scales.
