Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

831
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Public Health Surveillance
  • Traumatic Brain Injury

Background:

  • Estimating work-related concussion injuries in Kentucky.
  • Utilizing multiple state-based data sources: emergency department (ED) visits, hospital discharge (HD) data, and workers' compensation (WC) data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the 2011 work-related concussion injury rate in Kentucky.
  • To assess the effectiveness of different data sources in estimating concussion rates.

Main Methods:

  • Deterministic data linkages between 2011 WC data and ED/HD data.
  • Calculation of annual crude rates of work-related concussions per 100,000 employed civilians (age 16+).

Main Results:

  • The combined data sources estimated a 2011 work-related concussion rate of 31.8 per 100,000.
  • Rates were higher for men (38.8/100,000) than women (24.1/100,000).
  • WC data alone yielded a rate of 11.7/100,000; ED data alone yielded 21.7/100,000.

Conclusions:

  • Multiple data source surveillance is recommended for accurate estimation of work-related concussion injuries.
  • Routine use of WC, ED, and HD data is advised for comprehensive injury surveillance.
