Initial evaluation of the early aberration reporting system--Florida.
INTRODUCTION In recent years, many syndromic surveillance systems have been deployed around the United States for the early detection of biologic terrorism-related and naturally occurring outbreaks. These systems and the associated aberration detection methods need to be evaluated. OBJECTIVE This study evaluated several detection methods of the Early Aberration Reporting System (EARS) under s...

OBJECTIVE Broadly, this research aims to improve the outbreak detection performance and, therefore, the cost effectiveness of automated syndromic surveillance systems by building novel, recombinant temporal aberration detection algorithms from components of previously developed detectors. METHODS This study decomposes existing temporal aberration detection algorithms into two sequential stage...
متن کاملBuilding a Better Syndromic Surveillance System: the New York City Experience
Introduction The New York City (NYC) syndromic surveillance system has monitored syndromes from NYC emergency department (ED) visits since 2001, using the temporal and spatial scan statistic in SaTScan for aberration detection. Since our syndromic system was initiated, alternative methods have been proposed for outbreak identification. Our goal was to evaluate methods for outbreak detection and...

Background and Objectives: Syndromic surveillance systems are used to early detection of outbreaks. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of clinical and non-clinical data sources used in influenza syndromic surveillance in Zanjan. Methods: In this time series study, clinical and non-clinical data related to influenza like illness (ILI) as a potential data source of synd...
متن کاملValidity of Evaluation Approaches for Outbreak Detection Methods in Syndromic Surveillance Systems
Timely response to health events such as emerging diseases and outbreaks are a major public health priority. Outbreak detection methods and algorithms as the main tools for public health surveillance systems are under the umbrella of temporal and spatial methods (1). “There are three different approaches which might be used by syndromic surveillance systems to examine the performances of outbre...
