Considering established long-term health (LTH) metrics used within industry, academia, and other government agencies, can you provide guidance on their usage or adaptation for space travel LTH risk assessment. I hope to quantify the expected incidence rate and severity of astronaut health complications post-flight caused by in-mission medical events or space hazards.

The following are the creative, novel ideas generated by AhaApple using AI + brainstorming techniques + innovative techniques simultaneously:
- industry : Build upon established health metrics used in industries such as mining and deep-sea diving that already deal with extreme environments. This can be a starting point in creating a health metric tool especially for astronauts.
- academia : Collaborate with academic institutions focused on space studies and health. They might already have studies that have a different approach to LTH metrics which you could utilize or adapt.
- government agencies : Link with government agencies like the department of health to understand how they measure and predict long-term health risks. They might have access to health databases that can maximize the accuracy of the metrics used.
- metrics : Establish scientifically rigorous metrics for assessing the impact of space travel on long-term health, these metrics can be based on data from past astronauts and studies done on the ISS.
- adaptation : Develop or adapt current screening methods to have a more tailored and rigorous pre-flight health assessment for astronauts to prevent any in-mission medical events.
- space travel : Incorporate factors like radiation exposure, weightlessness, mental stress etc. common in space travel, into the LTH assessment metric.
- risk assessment : Develop a risk assessment tool that will consider both minor and major health complications that astronauts can encounter post-flight.
- incidence rate : Use AI based predictive models to help quantify the incidence rate of health complications post-flight. Gather data from previous missions to train these models.
- severity : Aside from incidence rate, it's also key to assess severity of possible health complications. So, put more weight on health complications that can lead to long-term damage or immediate threat to the mission.
- post-flight : Develop comprehensive post-flight health protocols to promptly address any health complications astronauts might face upon return to Earth.
- in-mission medical events : Create a comprehensive medical response plan for each mission. Utilize AI and machine learning to simulate potential in-mission health risks and derive effective responses.
- space hazards : Take into account the unique hazards of space, such as radiation and microgravity, when developing health-risk metrics.
- health complications : Establish a comprehensive medical database of all known astronaut health complications, to improve the AI prediction model's accuracy and efficiency.
- astronaut : Consider specific physical and mental training programs to mitigate predicted health risks based on that particular astronaut's health metrics.
- medical events : Create a systematic database documenting all medical events from previous space missions. Track connections between these events and health complications post-flight for future reference and mitigation plans.
- quantify : Ensure the comprehensive use of quantitative methods and tools in order to produce an objective and reliable assessment of astronaut health risks. This should include both predictive and analytical modeling.
- guidance : Develop guides and protocols derived from the assessments for both mission managers and astronauts. These documents should help in the decision-making process during missions and also in the preparation stages.
- long-term health : Leverage the breadth of research done on long-term health risk factors across sectors and adapt it to the specific needs of astronauts.
- expected: Utilize predictive analytics and collective intelligence tools leveraging historical data and current health knowledge to specify accurate expected health complication scenarios.
- established: Traditional health metrics used in different sectors can form a solid base on which more space-specific health metrics can be built, incorporating unique aspects of space travel.
