CPT is a code EMS use to communicate. Like Police use the phonetic alphabet, etc. Upon my EMS textbooks and some sites:

The boy was treated as a code ALS2 (Advanced Life Support- level 2). The boy had a CVC (Central Venous Catheter/ line). 
It was also mentioned that the CPR was performed, artificial ventillation and intubation. So that's another thing as to why he would be code ALS2.

Did he go to a Trauma Center? This could change some of the code and response. 

The boy is 5 years old, and thus does not qualify for Medicaid. If he had a specific diagnosis rendering specific medical intervention and care.

Hope this helped!

Physical fitness involves the proper functioning of which body systems?
lutik1710 [3]
The correct answer is muscular. When you work out, you are using your muscles to help you perform well during fitness exercises. When your muscles are overused, you will feel sore the next day because your muscles had to work hard.
