متن کاملA cost-effectiveness analysis of three components of a syndromic surveillance system for the early warning of epidemics in rural China
BACKGROUND Syndromic surveillance systems (SSSs) collect non-specific syndromes in early stages of disease outbreaks. This makes an SSS a promising tool for the early detection of epidemics. An Integrated Surveillance System in rural China (ISSC project), which added an SSS to the existing Chinese surveillance system for the early warning of epidemics, was implemented from April 2012 to March 2...
متن کاملEvaluation of Outbreak Detection Performance Using Multi-Stream Syndromic Surveillance for Influenza-Like Illness in Rural Hubei Province, China: A Temporal Simulation Model Based on Healthcare-Seeking Behaviors
BACKGROUND Syndromic surveillance promotes the early detection of diseases outbreaks. Although syndromic surveillance has increased in developing countries, performance on outbreak detection, particularly in cases of multi-stream surveillance, has scarcely been evaluated in rural areas. OBJECTIVE This study introduces a temporal simulation model based on healthcare-seeking behaviors to evalua...
متن کاملEstablishing a web-based integrated surveillance system for early detection of infectious disease epidemic in rural China: a field experimental study
