3 SARI/ARI Surveillance in CARPHA Member States* Objectives of SARI Surveillance: To detect unusual or unexpected viral respiratory outbreaks To determine the epidemiologic characteristics of influenza and other viral respiratory diseases To monitor circulating influenza virus strains To make recommendations for annual vaccine composition To detect in a timely manner the emergence of new subtypes Guide the development of policy and guidelines for influenza prevention and control * Excluding Haiti

4 SARI Case Definition Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) SARI case definition for persons 5 years old: Sudden onset of fever, AND Cough or sore throat, AND Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, AND Requiring hospital admission. SARI case definition for children <5 years old: Meets the case definition as above OR Any child <5 years old clinically suspected of having pneumonia or severe/very severe pneumonia, and requiring hospital admission.

5 SARI SURVEILLANCE ACTIVITIES AT SENTINEL SITES ARI patient arrives at sentinel site NO Surveillance Officer detects SARI case through review of admission log book A MISSED SARI CASE Admitted to ward- meets case definition Case investigated ACTION: 1. Extracts data from health records to form A 2. Take clinical samples if within time. YES ACTION: 1. Records necessary information using SARI Case Investigation form A. 2. Takes clinical samples, completes laboratory request form B, and arranges sample processing. 3. Alerts surveillance officer and forwards form A 4. Start to fill the weekly report form C. ONGOING SURVEILLANCE ACTIVITIES: Collection of SARI death data for Form C. Collection of denominator data for Form C. Communication with all partners at sentinel site Communication with National Laboratory, EPI, and the National Epidemiologist.

6 CARPHA s Role Laboratory detection technique Real-time RT-PCR (ABI StepOnePlus, ABI 7500 & Stratagene Mx3000P) Detection capacity Influenza A & B Infulenza A subtypes (H3N2, H1N1 pdm09, H5N1, H7N9) Non-influenza respiratory viruses (RSV, Parainfluenza 1,2,3, HMPV, Adenovirus, Rhinovirus) MERS-CoV Surveillance Collection of both individual case data and aggregate data Monitor, analyse and report weekly to member states and other external stakeholders
