BAT—Biodosimetry Assessment Tool version 1.06
Logo of Biodosimetry Assessment Tool (BAT)Purpose—A computer-based software diagnostic tool for use by health-care providers early after a radiation incident. Assists providers in identifying individuals with significant radiation exposures and in making appropriate treatment decisions. BAT is NOT a substitute for treatment decisions by physicians and other trained health-care professionals.

Features

  • Runs on Windows XP SP2, Vista, or 7.
  • BAT v 1.06 allows help file to be displayed in Windows 7.
  • Uses templates to collect, integrate, and archive data obtained from patients accidentally exposed to ionizing radiation.
  • Includes an interactive human body map to easily indicate location of radioactivity detected by an appropriate device.
  • Delivers diagnostic information (clinical signs and symptoms, physical dosimetry, etc.).
  • Generates diagnostic indices for the development of a multiparameter dose assessment.
  • Assesses clinical parameters useful for casualty management.
  • Displays concise, relevant patient diagnostic information.
  • Archives information for further use in radiation protection management.

FRAT—First-responders Radiological Assessment Triage
FRAT logoPurpose—Will enable first responders to triage suspected radiation casualties based on the initial, or prodromal, features listed in the Emergency Radiation Medicine Response—AFRRI Pocket Guide (55-kb PDF).

Development status—Developed initially for the Palm operating system for personal digital assistant (PDA) devices; may eventually be available for other devices.

Features
  • Provide, with minimum text entry, signs and symptoms, blood lymphocyte counts, and dosimetry data.
  • Assess the multiparameter triage dose or the exposure without an assigned dose or indicate no evidence of overexposure.
  • Provide dose-specific messages addressing reliability and diagnostic information, hospitalization estimations, and mortality projections.
