Addenda to Allied Medical Publication 8, NATO Planning Guide for the Estimation of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Casualties (AMedP-8(C)) to Consider the Impact of Medical Treatment on Casualty Estimation
Abstract
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Allied Medical Publication 8, NATO Planning Guide for the Estimation of CBRN Casualties, referred to as (AMedP-8(C)), describes a methodology for estimating casualties resulting from chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear (CBRN) attacks on military populations. In anticipation of a future expansion of the scope of AMedP-8(C), the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) has recently revised the methodology to account for care provided to patients entering the medical system. Incorporating medical care parameters into the published NATO guide will require substantial changes to several chapters of the publication, as well as three of its annexes. This document presents the text, tables, and figures that will need to be added to AMedP-8(C) if medical care is integrated into the document. Each chapter of this document contains the addenda to one chapter or annex in AMedP-8(C), and sections are written to be consistent with the existing contents of the NATO document.
