我国埃博拉病毒病监测若干问题的思考

Suggestion for Ebola virus disease surveillance in China

摘要: 为做好西非埃博拉病毒病输入疫情的监测,我国以早期发现输入病例为主要目的,采用较高灵敏度的病例定义,多部门共同协作,并随着疫情形势变化而调整策略。在实际监测过程中还需定期开展系统评价加以改进。实践证明我国开展的埃博拉病毒病监测能够满足预期目的,未来可考虑建立常态的由多部门共同协作的输入性传染病监测机制。

Abstract: In order to establish an effective surveillance system for possible imported Ebola virus disease(EVD) rampant in West Africa, China mainly focused on the early detection of imported cases using a highly sensitive case definition. This surveillance system was conducted by multi departments and adjustment was made according to the epidemic situation. Systematic evaluation was also conducted during the surveillance practice. It was proved that the EVD surveillance conducted in China was effective. In the future, a routine surveillance system composed by multi-departments should be established to cope with the risk of imported communicable disease to China.
