Chemical Hazards Emergency Medical Management (CHEMM) offers this comprehensive resource for toxic syndromes commonly observed in mass chemical exposures.

This tool (Also known as the Zebra Book) was developed to be a comprehensive resource for clinical personnel by providing information on various aspects of biological, chemical, and radiological terrorism. It is intended to serve as an emergent guide book on what to do and where to seek information in the event of an attack.

CHEMM-IST is a prototype decision support tool developed by experts in medicine and emergency response as an aid for identifying the chemical a patient was exposed to in a mass casualty incident. Toxic syndromes or toxidromes are easily identified with only a few observations.

This resource from the Radiological Society of North America offers valuable insights for hospitals, particularly in the field of diagnostic imaging. It can aid hospitals in improving their radiology departments by addressing advancements in imaging technologies, optimizing patient care through more accurate diagnostics, and streamlining clinical workflows.

This guide was developed by The New York City Hospital Radiation Working Group, a multi-hospital working group convened by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) that included nuclear medicine, radiation oncology, emergency medicine, health physics, emergency management, mental health, environmental medicine, and radiation-related treatment and monitoring professionals.

A disaster, whether nature or man-made, can strike anyone anywhere, including an academic research facility.

ASPR TRACIE’s program on the impact of radiological incidents on health and health care provides information and planning strategies related to radiological incidents.
