What does dose condition code K stand for?

• A. World War I
• B. Mexican American War
• C. Civil War
• D. War of 1812

Answer: (B)

Dose condition codes are used to tag exposure histories with the specific conflict during which the exposure could have occurred. This makes it easier to link a veteran’s or worker’s dose record to the correct time period and set of conditions. Code K corresponds to the Mexican-American War, the conflict from 1846 to 1848. That mapping is part of the coding system that assigns each conflict a letter so dose recon teams can quickly classify historical exposures. The other wars listed would be associated with different codes, so seeing K tells you the exposure is tied to the Mexican-American War rather than World War I, the Civil War, or the War of 1812.
