A  Alert
V (verbal) responds when spoken to
P (Pain)  responds to a painful stimuli
I Inconscious

I'm not sure but it has been in our manuals since waaaay before time  ;)
Not really , it is supossed to be a first recognition trauma score as it
appears in the PHTLS and MIT ( manejo integral del Trauma)
Hope this helps...
