Early detection is essential to the control of emerging, reemerging, and novel infectious diseases, whether naturally occurring or intentionally introduced. Containing the spread of such diseases in a profoundly interconnected world requires active vigilance for signs of an outbreak, rapid recognition of its presence, and diagnosis of its microbial cause, in addition to strategies and resources for an appropriate and efficient response. Although these actions are often viewed in terms of human public health, they also challenge the plant and animal health communities. Surveillance, defined as "the continual scrutiny of all aspects of occurrence and spread of a disease that are pertinent to effective control", involves the "systematic collection, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of health data." Disease detection and diagnosis is the act of discovering a novel, emerging, or reemerging disease or disease event and identifying its cause. Diagnosis is "the cornerstone of effective disease control and prevention efforts, including surveillance." Disease surveillance and detection relies heavily on the astute individual: the clinician, veterinarian, plant pathologist, farmer, livestock manager, or agricultural extension agent who notices something unusual, atypical, or suspicious and brings this discovery in a timely way to the attention of an appropriate representative of human public health, veterinary medicine, or agriculture. Most developed countries have the ability to detect and diagnose human, animal, and plant diseases. Global Infectious Disease Surveillance and Detection: Assessing the Challenges-Finding Solutions, Workshop Summary is part of a 10 book series and summarizes the recommendations and presentations of the workshop.

This fully updated edition of Infectious Disease Surveillance is for frontline public health practitioners, epidemiologists, and clinical microbiologists who are engaged in communicable disease control. It is also a foundational text for trainees in public health, applied epidemiology, postgraduate medicine and nursing programs. The second edition portrays both the conceptual framework and practical aspects of infectious disease surveillance. It is a comprehensive resource designed to improve the tracking of infectious diseases and to serve as a starting point in the development of new surveillance systems. Infectious Disease Surveillance includes over 45 chapters from over 100 contributors, and topics organized into six sections based on major themes. Section One highlights the critical role surveillance plays in public health and it provides an overview of the current International Health Regulations (2005) in addition to successes and challenges in infectious disease eradication. Section Two describes surveillance systems based on logical program areas such as foodborne illnesses, vector-borne diseases, sexually transmitted diseases, viral hepatitis healthcare and transplantation associated infections. Attention is devoted to programs for monitoring unexplained deaths, agents of bioterrorism, mass gatherings, and disease associated with international travel. Sections Three and Four explore the uses of the Internet and wireless technologies to advance infectious disease surveillance in various settings with emphasis on best practices based on deployed systems. They also address molecular laboratory methods, and statistical and geospatial analysis, and evaluation of systems for early epidemic detection. Sections Five and Six discuss legal and ethical considerations, communication strategies and applied epidemiology-training programs. The rest of the chapters offer public-private partnerships, as well lessons from the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza pandemic and future directions for infectious disease surveillance.

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Health - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,00, Management Center Innsbruck, language: English, abstract: The global challenge against non-communicable diseases gained transnational attention over the last years. Statistics illustrate, that approximately 70% of all deaths worldwide can be traced back to chronic diseases. On the other hand, artificial intelligence is on the rise as the number of implemented software featuring machine-learning skills increased tremendously in the last years. Therefore, the purpose of this literature review is to combine those aspects in order to create synergies of the link between existing approaches with the aim to face non-communicable diseases and artificial intelligence. The review focusses firstly specifically only on the most prevalent NCDs and their characteristics before analysing the rise of machine-learning software from the very beginning. In a next step, those two fields will be combined with the aim to point out both benefits and risks when implementing AI in the healthcare sector. The outcome was, that the use of such software would definitely cut a three-digit number of billions of Euros of spending on healthcare due to the possibility to early-detect diseases and the hereby arising possibility to treat patients in a more efficient way as until now. On the other hand, the biggest risk will be, that artificial intelligence works on huge datasets that need to be set up first – during the setting up process of such data, failures can take place which would have a grave impact on further use.

In this thesis, I present selected works I conducted in my Master of Philosophy Applied Epidemiology (MAE) placement at the Vaccine Preventable Disease Surveillance (VPDS) Section of the Office of Health Protection (OHP), at the Australian Government Department of Health from March 2013 to November 2014. The works presented comprise my MAE requirements and describe my experiences as an MAE. I discuss my role in the day-the-day activities of the VPDS section, including the surveillance of notifiable diseases, being the secretariat for the rotavirus working group, writing annual reports and editing Communicable Disease Intelligence Journal submissions. I also describe my role as a Watch Officer for the National Incident Room within the OHP. I investigated a foodborne outbreak of gastroenteritis at a Mother's Day buffet luncheon in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), where curried prawns and Caesar salad were the suspected cause of the outbreak. The investigation was unable to determine the aetiological cause of illness but highlighted the risk often associated with serving buffet style meals. I present two epidemiological studies. The first is an analysis of notified Legionella infections from 2001 and 2012. Describing the epidemiology of legionellosis in Australia, the analysis found rates of infection are low and more likely to affect males and vulnerable populations such as the elderly. Comparing these results to a previous review of legionellosis in Australia (1991-2000), we found age, sex and season of infection were consistent, but notification rates were stable and higher compared with rates from 1991 to 2000, and Legionella longbeachae was notified more than Legionella pneumophila. I presented the findings of my analysis in an oral presentation at the 2014 Public Health Association of Australia 43rd Annual Conference in Perth. The second epidemiological project I undertook examined why Indigenous status was underreported in National Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Register (NHVPR). Analysing female vaccination records from 2007 to 2012, we identified 46% were missing Indigenous status. We reviewed the literature, examined register data and consulted with jurisdictional health departments to identify what barriers exist that potentially prevent the reporting of Indigenous status to the NHVPR. I evaluated the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS) as a surveillance system for influenza. The evaluation found that the NNDSS is an acceptable, simple and useable system that provides high quality data for the national surveillance of laboratory-confirmed influenza. However, improvements in the systems flexibility and sensitivity would ensure higher quality surveillance data continues to be available. Lastly, to fulfil my teaching requirements I prepared a 'Lessons From the Field' case study on how to work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander data and conducted a teaching session on measurement and information biases as part of a half day training session undertaken for the MAE cohort of 2014. This thesis describes my experiences in my MAE placement, the fulfilment of requirements and the findings of my investigations. The work presented in this thesis contributes to the work of VPDS section by improving our understanding of communicable disease surveillance in Australia.

The Oxford Textbook of Infectious Disease Control: A Geographical Analysis from Medieval Quarantine to Global Eradication is a comprehensive analysis of spatial theory and the practical methods used to prevent the geographical spread of communicable diseases in humans. Drawing on current and historical examples spanning seven centuries from across the globe, this indispensable volume demonstrates how to mitigate the public health impact of infections in disease hotspots and prevent the propagation of infection from such hotspots into other geographical locations. Containing case studies of longstanding global killers such as influenza, measles and poliomyelitis, through to newly emerged diseases like SARS and highly pathogenic avian influenza in humans, this book integrates theory, data and spatial analysis and locates these quantitative analyses in the context of global demographic and health policy change. Beautifully illustrated with over 100 original maps and diagrams to aid understanding and assimilation, in six sections the authors examine surveillance, quarantine, vaccination, and forecasting for disease control. The discussion covers theoretical approaches, techniques and systems central to mitigating disease spread, and methods that deliver practical disease control. Essential information is also provided on the geographical eradication of diseases, including the design of early warning systems that detect the geographical spread of epidemics, enabling students and practitioners to design spatially-targeted control strategies. Despite the early hope of eradication of many communicable diseases after the global eradication of smallpox by 1979, the world is still working at the control and elimination of the spatial spread of newly-emerging and resurgent infectious diseases. Learning from past examples and incorporating modern surveillance and reporting techniques that are used to design value-for-money spatially-targeted interventions to protect public health, the Oxford Textbook of Infectious Disease Control is an essential resource for all those working in, or studying ways to control the spread of communicable diseases between humans in a timely and cost-effective manner. It is ideal for specialists and students in infectious disease control as well as those in the medical sciences, epidemiology, demography, public health, geography, and medical history.
