Czech term or phrase: tsk
Context: discharge letter, patient after brain injury
"Neurologický stav: při vědomí,GCS 4/tsk/3, pohledem fixuje, na výzvu reaguje s latencí, mrkne i otevře; oči, nadzvedne levou ruku, naznačuje stisk prsty, snaží se otevřít ústa, hybnost levostrannými končetinami"

I believe that GCS is Glasgow Coma Scale (see the context; also see https://cs.wikipedia.org; Glasgowská stupnice),
but I have no guess about the "tsk" there.

Thank you!
