ASCIS schedule. The ASCIS schedule consists of a 7-stage follow-up examination process that collects data from the early acute phase at day 0 until 2–3 years after injury. The data are collected during the early acute phase (between 0 and 1–3 days after injury), the acute/rehabilitation phase (acute 1: 14–40 days after injury; acute 2: 70–90 days after injury; acute 3: 150–86 days after injury), and the chronic phase (chronic 1: 10–13 months after injury; chronic 2: 24–36 months after injury)
