Updated Glasgow Coma descriptions to adhere to International standards by adding the ability to document "Not Testable" - or NT - for each component (Eyes, Verbal, Motor).
https://www.glasgowcomascale.org/

NT does not have a number equivalent; therefore, when used, it cannot be totaled for a Sum GCS. On page 3 and page 8, when NT is used, the "Total" is N/A.

If any of the following fields are used in your Custom Reporting, you could begin to see "N/A" as a reported result:
Initial GCS - Total
GCS, Total - First
GCS, Total - Last

EMC-6555 Added SCT procedure options for Page 8 Ventilator and Titrate procedures
EMC-6901 Added check to suppress QA Flag emails if the crew member does not belong to same service that the chart belongs to.
