内容説明
Every health care service needs to employ some form of surveillance to monitor the occurrence and spread of disease in its own area. Without this, it is impossible to select the most imperative health problems or to set priorities for preventive and curative programmes. Nevertheless, surveillance is not compulsory in all health services in Europe. The purpose of this book is to stress the need for surveillance and to raise demands for the establishment of proper systems. The first part deals with the basic features of surveillance: its history, the selection of indicators of health and environment, the flow of information, programmes of action and their benefits, and ethical issues. The second part gives accounts of the surveillance of major diseases and health problems in Europe and gives examples of the use of data from primary health care and hospital sources. This is a guide to those in charge of working with routine health statistics and who are improving the use of existing data.
