I need some clarification from anyone who knows --- the subject is Clinical Health Assessment. I've been unfortunately ill and haven't been on-campus so can't ask in person, I'm only able to work off the resources provided online. What IS the sedation score in CHA? Thanks in Advance .. hope you can help me!
