mFI-5 and mFI-11 demonstrated similar accuracy in predicting any complication, home discharge, facility discharge, and mortality in TBI patients across the NTDB.

Since mFI-5 is simpler, yet as accurate as the 2 other scales, it may be the most practical both for clinical practice and for future studies with the NTDB.
