The scoring system evaluates Circulation, Respiration, Abdomen, Motor function, and Speech (CRAMS) on a scale of 0-2 points for each category, with a total possible score of 0-10. A score of 8 points or less indicates a critical patient who requires a call to the emergency response line A.I.R. for urgent medical attention.
