Disease Surveillance and Risk Assessment

Maximize surveillance for real-time detection and notification of dengue cases and understanding disease dynamics by intensifying disease surveillance at all levels including the outpatient departments and private sector to strengthen early detection and reduce the risk of outbreaks.

  • Intensify case detection according to the dengue case definition following the surveillance case definition
  • Assess and address gaps in disease notification and coordinate with central, provincial, and regional level health facilities for accurate and real-time case notification on the NaDSys System
  • Improve laboratory diagnostic capacity and ensure sustained availability and affordability of rapid diagnostic tests

Enhance risk assessment capacity by improving utilization of NaDSys data, and develop and operationalize the use of a risk mapping tool.

  • Enhance the utility of NaDSys and develop the capacity of healthcare staff for data analysis and decision-making for interventions.
  • Develop and validate a geospatial risk mapping tool for undertaking risk assessment and targeted interventions.
