“…9-11 Despite scarcity of studies on the knowledge, attitudes, and compliance of physicians regarding surveillance of reportable diseases, it was reported that physicians’ knowledge about notifiable disease surveillance is poor. 12-14 To the best of our knowledge, there are no previous studies about knowledge, attitudes, and compliance of physicians regarding surveillance of reportable diseases in Jordan. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitudes of Jordanian physicians toward public health surveillance of communicable disease.…”

Health professionals’ knowledge and awareness of the disease surveillance is essential for reporting diseases to health departments. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitudes of Jordanian physicians toward public health surveillance of communicable disease. A cross-sectional study was conducted among resident doctors who were working in 4 main Ministry of Health hospitals and 2 teaching hospitals in Jordan in September 2017. A self-administered paper-based questionnaire was used to collect the data. The questionnaire collected information about sociodemographic and practice-related characteristics of physicians and included items to assess their knowledge of surveillance and reporting practices. This study included 223 physicians (152 males and 71 females). About 60.1% of the residents were graduates from medical schools in Jordan and the remaining (39.9%) were graduates from medical schools in other countries. Approximately two thirds of residents (62.3%) were doing their residency in Ministry of Health hospitals and the rest (37.7%) in 2 teaching hospitals. Only 44.8% of physicians had defined surveillance correctly. Only 27.4% of physicians had been educated or trained on surveillance. About 39.5% of physicians had filled at least one report form during their practice. The main reasons for not reporting mandatory diseases were high workload (49.8%) and being not trained on reporting diseases (46.6%). A relatively high percentage of physicians have insufficient knowledge of surveillance and reporting of notifiable communicable diseases. Training of physicians on surveillance and diseases notification is highly needed. The practice of disease notification should be enforced in Jordanian hospitals.

“…13 Several studies have shown that clinicians have poor knowledge and reporting of notifiable diseases. [14][15][16] Since clinicians are the first point of contact in suspecting, detecting and notifying EVD, it is important to carry out baseline studies on their knowledge of disease notification modalities. Moreover, following the confirmation of a notifiable disease the clinicians involved in the management of the index patient often undertake a risk assessment to determine their level and type of contact with the patient.…”

“…La implantación de la IA, como fuente de información adicional a las ya existentes, ha contribuido al SVEA sumando un número de casos considerable de EDO durante el periodo de estudio, y por ende, disminuyendo la infradeclaración que afecta a los sistemas de vigilancia epidemiológica 8,9 . Aunque la demora implícita en la importación resta utilidad en el caso de EDO que requieren de intervención urgente, cabe destacar que algunas de estas enfermedades se declararon mediante IA, acortando tiempos de intervención que serían mayores al notificarse y/o declararse a posteriori por medio de otras fuentes de información.…”

RESUMENFundamentos: En 2009 se implantó el sistema para la importación automática (IA) de casos con sospecha de enfermedad de declaración obligatoria (EDO) desde la historia clínica digital (HCD) a la RedAlerta, aplicación informática para la vigilancia epidemiológica en Andalucía. Hasta ahora, la contribución de este sistema a la clásica declaración activa no se ha determinado suficientemente. El principal objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la utilidad de IA en la provincia de Granada, entre 2009 y 2014.Métodos: Durante el periodo de estudio (2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014), un epidemiólogo validó si las EDO importadas satisfacían el criterio de declaración o no. Se halló la contribución de la IA a la RedAlerta y el porcentaje de validación de IA, estimando su IC 95%.Resultados: La contribución de la IA fue del 17,3% (IC95%: 16,1-18,5). Por tipo de declaración el 5,2% (IC95%:4,1-6,5) fueron las urgentes y 24,4% (IC95%: 22,7-26,2) fueron ordinarias. La contribución fue superior al 45% en la enfermedad de Lyme, hipotiroidismo congénito, herpes genital, hepatitis C y otras hepatitis víricas. El 30% (IC95%:28,1-32) de las IA fueron validadas de las cuales el 39,9% (IC95%:33-47,2) fueron urgentes y el 29,1% (IC95%:27,2-31,2%) ordinarias. El porcentaje de validación fue superior al 45% (entre el 47,5 y el 100%) en enfermedades vacunables, en las de transmisión sexual y en las de baja incidencia. Conclusiones:Si bien no sustituye la declaración manual y requiere de un proceso de verificación, el sistema de incorporación automática es útil e incrementa la exhaustividad del sistema de vigilancia epidemiológica.Palabras clave: Enfermedades de declaración obligatoria.
