Abstract

Electronic Integrated Disease Surveillance System (EIDSS) improves one-health surveillance in medical, veterinary and environmental sectors by providing a capability to rapidly collect disseminate and analyze data on infectious diseases. In this showcase the system is demonstrated on CCHF research example from Kazakhstan. It covers all steps of the process including a data gathering on human cases on the district levels using handhelds, web access or desktop applications, conducting vector surveillance campaigns for ticks investigations, linking laboratory results, sharing the data across organizations and a one-click integrated analysis of epidemiological situation with CCHF for epidemiologists on national and regional level.
