Why
[edit]Why is it the cincinnati scale? I thought that the verbal test was to get the patient to say "the ski is blue in cincinnati" and that was why it was called what it is. Otherwise, I think it should be called the prehospital stroke scale. I'm not going to change the article, since I have only a passing familiarity with this, It was mentioned in our training, but I've never used it. If I'm wrong, sorry for wasting y'alls time.
- Most such things with similar names are named after the place that developed the test, so I assume that this scale was developed in Cincinnati. WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:16, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
