ATTAP Trauma Triage Score Calculator

Correct ATTAPtitle premise:declared AnimalTraumaTriage(ATT) six0–3domain codes in perfusion, cardiac, respiratory, eye/muscle/integument, skeletal, neurologic order; independent qualified assessment only. Sum only independently assessed codes for the declared instrument/version; exact maxima [3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3] and minima [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]. Unknown items preserve possible total bounds without imputation. No questionnaire reproduction, clinical item assignment, norm, diagnosis, treatment or outcome prediction.

Description

The Animal Trauma Triage, or ATT, instrument has six scored domains under the declared version.

The Animal Trauma Triage, or ATT, instrument has six scored domains under the declared version.^{[1, 2]}

The tool's ATTAP title does not define a different assessment; its calculation totals supplied ATT codes with unknowns retained. With every domain known, the supplied codes total 0 through 18.

When to use ATTAP Trauma Triage Score Calculator

Use this tool to calculate or review the supplied observations under the stated rules. Establish the animal, measurement protocol, units and independently applicable veterinary prescription or reference.

How to use ATTAP Trauma Triage Score Calculator and understand its results

Establish the animal, measurement protocol, units and independently applicable veterinary prescription or reference.
Enter independentlyCodedItemScores, itemKnownFlags, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
Read knownItemSum alongside minimumPossibleTotal, maximumPossibleTotal and unknownItemIndices. A partial sum is not a completed score.
Correct any reported input issue and run again. Before using a successful result, check the stated units, signs, reference scope and observation coverage.

Input field	Meaning	Value type	Requirement
independentlyCodedItemScores	Independently coded item scores	list of number	Required
itemKnownFlags	Item known flags; binary 1 means the matched observation is known, 0 means unknown	list of number	Required

Supply six integer ATT domain codes from 0 through 3, ordered perfusion, cardiac, respiratory, eye/muscle/integument, skeletal and neurological, with six binary known flags. Even unknown-domain placeholders must be valid codes. Sum known codes; calculate minimum and maximum possible totals by substituting each unknown domain's allowed bounds. Return zero-based unknown indices.

knownTotal=Σ(score_i where known_i=1); minimumPossible=knownTotal+Σ(domainMin_i where unknown); maximumPossible=knownTotal+Σ(domainMax_i where unknown)

Use the matching field units and the exact boundary, ordering and reference rules above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
result	Qualified observation, conditional calculation or reference	object
result.knownItemSum	Sum of known item codes only; unknown placeholders do not contribute.	number
result.minimumPossibleTotal	Known item sum plus the permitted minimum of each unknown item.	number
result.maximumPossibleTotal	Known item sum plus the permitted maximum of each unknown item.	number
result.unknownItemIndices	Zero-based item positions excluded from the known sum and retained in possible-total bounds.	list

Limitations and assumptions

The patient context, observations and applicability of any reference or prescription must be independently established. This result supplies no diagnosis, default dose, treatment selection or assessment of clinical suitability.

Missing required fields, unknown fields, wrong types and violated rules return input issues. Numeric values and outputs must be finite. Lists and matrices must be dense, without missing cells. Numeric lists allow at most 10000 entries, subject to the narrower lengths and code rules above. Extremely large composite outputs are rejected.
