You are a field supervisor for your EMS system and are working with a new EMT during his probationary period. Both
of you are currently on the scene of a 10-month-old pediatric patient for what dispatch describes as "an unknown
medical emergency." Upon arrival, the parents state the infant is "just not acting right." Currently the infant opens his
eyes when you shout his name suddenly, he can localize painful stimuli when applied, and he is grunting with each
respiration. He was born 3 weeks premature. His capillary refill is 2 seconds. You ask your new EMT to calculate the
pediatric GCS score. The EMT should respond with which numeric value?
OA. 6.0
O B. 10.0
OC. 12.0
OD. 8.0
