Digital Survey–Based Tracing of COVID-19 Over the Early Pandemic: Comprehensive Geospatial and Symptomatic Analysis in Lebanon

Digital Survey–Based Tracing of COVID-19 Over the Early Pandemic: Comprehensive Geospatial and Symptomatic Analysis in Lebanon

Beyond its real-time monitoring capabilities, the HAYATI app was uniquely designed to integrate risk prediction, testing triage, and surveillance within a single platform. Unlike Go.Data, a digital tool developed by the WHO that focuses primarily on case investigation and contact follow-up, the HAYATI app combined algorithm-based risk scoring with geospatial visualization and diagnostic referral.

Comparative Performance of Wastewater, Clinical, and Digital Surveillance Indicators for COVID-19 Monitoring in Routine Practice: Retrospective Observational Study

Comparative Performance of Wastewater, Clinical, and Digital Surveillance Indicators for COVID-19 Monitoring in Routine Practice: Retrospective Observational Study

Several countries have tended to establish more comprehensive emerging infectious disease surveillance systems from multiple channels. The United States established the National Syndromic Surveillance Program, which leveraged data from sentinel hospitals, community clinics, meteorological sensors, and online media to provide real-time disease surveillance [13].

Adherence to Posttreatment Surveillance Guidelines in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer: Retrospective Cohort Study

Adherence to Posttreatment Surveillance Guidelines in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer: Retrospective Cohort Study

As a result, several expert bodies have issued guidelines recommending routine surveillance following treatment completion to detect recurrence and SPLC [4-6]. Nearly all these guidelines recommend imaging surveillance within 6 months following treatment completion. Despite these recommendations for posttreatment surveillance, there is wide variability in guideline adherence in clinical practice.

Machine Learning–Enhanced Surveillance for Surgical Site Infections in Patients Undergoing Colon Surgery: Model Development and Evaluation Study

Machine Learning–Enhanced Surveillance for Surgical Site Infections in Patients Undergoing Colon Surgery: Model Development and Evaluation Study

The current surveillance process for SSIs is resource intensive, requiring manual chart reviews by infection control practitioners to monitor surgical procedures and screen for potential infections. This manual surveillance is time-consuming and labor intensive and detracts from direct patient care [8].

Comparison of Virus Watch COVID-19 Positivity, Incidence, and Hospitalization Rates With Other Surveillance Systems: Surveillance Study

Comparison of Virus Watch COVID-19 Positivity, Incidence, and Hospitalization Rates With Other Surveillance Systems: Surveillance Study

Surveillance systems are essential for epidemic and pandemic response, as they are required for detecting outbreaks and establishing fundamental epidemiological parameters to inform and evaluate effective and efficient public health interventions [1]. Comparing and learning from different surveillance strategies used during the COVID-19 pandemic provides important insights to prepare for future pandemics.

Preparing for Potential Health and Safety Risks at the Olympic Games: Scoping Review

Preparing for Potential Health and Safety Risks at the Olympic Games: Scoping Review

Furthermore, surveillance systems such as the Web-based Injury and Illness Surveillance System and Event-based Surveillance are adopted for monitoring [15,16]. Regarding counterterrorism responses, actions encompass organizing drills, providing funding, and strengthening security. Examples include the deployment of a disaster medical assistance team and a highly sophisticated chemical-biological incident response unit during the 1997 Atlanta Olympic Games. [17,18].

Comparing the Costs of Surveillance of Early-Stage Breast Cancer by Digital or Traditional Follow-Up Methods: Randomized Crossover Study

Comparing the Costs of Surveillance of Early-Stage Breast Cancer by Digital or Traditional Follow-Up Methods: Randomized Crossover Study

After 6 months, the patients switched surveillance methods. The total follow-up time in this study protocol was 1 year. Thus, all patients were exposed to both follow-up methods. When using the digital solution, patients were also allowed to contact the nurse by phone. However, during the phone call follow-up period, patients were not able to use the digital solution. The purpose of randomization was to ensure that all patients used both monitoring methods and were able to compare them.

Using the ATra Black Box to Improve Public Health Data Linkages and Analytics in the DC Cohort Longitudinal HIV Study: Viewpoint on the Process and Findings

Using the ATra Black Box to Improve Public Health Data Linkages and Analytics in the DC Cohort Longitudinal HIV Study: Viewpoint on the Process and Findings

At the study’s inception, a linkage to the DC Department of Health (DC Health) HIV surveillance data was proposed, with the goals of increasing the completeness and accuracy of both databases and identifying people enrolled at multiple DC Cohort sites [3]. Linked data include overlapping clinic and surveillance data, such as demographics, mode of HIV transmission, dates of diagnosis for HIV and AIDS, and HIV-related laboratory results, including CD4 T-lymphocyte (CD4) counts and HIV viral loads.

Experiences and Perceptions About Death Reporting and Notification Among Rural Communities on the Islands of Lake Victoria, Uganda: Qualitative Study

Experiences and Perceptions About Death Reporting and Notification Among Rural Communities on the Islands of Lake Victoria, Uganda: Qualitative Study

Although some countries have made progress in improving maternal and perinatal death surveillance [5,6], challenges remain regarding the establishment of mortality surveillance systems that comprehensively record all deaths that occur outside of health facility settings. The 2016 Uganda Demographic Health Survey noted that only 24.2% of all deaths that occur in the country are reported, notified, and registered [7].

A Nurse-Led Telemonitoring Approach in Diabetes During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Prospective Cohort Study

They were invited to participate in an NLTA as a health surveillance strategy with the specific aim of monitoring well-being over 12 months. The TSG intervention comprised 3-monthly telehealth contacts for 6 months, then again at 12 months post-enrollment. Contact was made via phone or video with a diabetes nurse educator.
