متن کاملEarly detection of influenza outbreaks using the DC Department of Health's syndromic surveillance system
BACKGROUND Since 2001, the District of Columbia Department of Health has been using an emergency room syndromic surveillance system to identify possible disease outbreaks. Data are received from a number of local hospital emergency rooms and analyzed daily using a variety of statistical detection algorithms. The aims of this paper are to characterize the performance of these statistical detecti...
متن کاملDetection of Outbreaks in Syndromic Surveillance Data Using Monotonic Regression
Due to nonstationarity and substantial variability in outbreak profiles, early detection of disease outbreaks is challenging. In this paper we propose a method to detect outbreaks in syndromic surveillance data using a generalized likelihood ratio test in which both the null and alternative hypotheses are normally distributed. The data is daily counts of interactions between patients and the Na...
