Objective:
To introduce the application of COBRA in health risk assessment of air pollution, and provide reference for the development of similar tools in China.
Methods:
The software overview, scope of application and application literature, data requirements and software operation, calculation principles, model construction was introduced, and put forward the reference significance to China.
Results:
Health and economic benefits can be quickly obtained by entering the type and value of change in pollutant concentration into the software.
Conclusion:
COBRA can be used to quickly evaluate the health effects and economic benefits of pollutant changes, and provide reference for the development of relevant tools in China, applied in many ways, such as rapid assessment of health benefits of pollution prevention and control programs in different cities, regions or nationwide, and screening the policies and measures with lower costs and greater benefits.
