1 Surveillance for Early Event Detection with BioSense (Visualization Context #3) Henry Rolka National Academy of Sciences Workshop Toward Improved Visualization of Uncertain Information Washington, D.C. Mar. 4, 2005

2 Outline Introduction, concepts and context Overview of BioSense Initiative System Interface General considerations of scope and complexity Data acquisition issues as analytic factors Data lag time Geographic distribution Example Summary

3 Public Health Information Network Early Event Detection BioSense Outbreak Management Outbreak Management System Surveillance NEDSS Secure Communications Epi-X Analysis & Interpretation BioIntelligence analytic technology Information Dissemination & KM CDC Website Health alerting Federal Health Architecture, NHII & Consolidated Health Informatics PH Response Countermeasure administration Lab, vaccine, prophylaxis

4 Early Detection Activities Data collection, preprocessing Data View Reporting or recording anomaly Application of statistical algorithms Something unusual noted in data etc. Epidemiological decisions Data processing error Statistical aberration due to natural variability True increase in disease Naturally occurring outbreak Requires information from other data sources Deliberate exposure event

5 Early Outbreak Detection: General Time Frame Grocery sales Medications Absenteeism Information seeking Nurse triage calls Orders Lab tests Exposure Symptom Health Behavior Healthcare Encounter Medical Evaluation Initial Findings Final Diagnosis BT Attack Physician office visits EMS activity Emergency room visits Hospitalization Preliminary diagnosis Hours Days Weeks

6 EARLY DETECTION Biosurveillance Data Space LATER DETECTION GOLD INTELLIGENCE BIOSENSORS NON TRADITIONAL MEDICAL STANDARDS ANIMALS Vets Zoos Agribusiness Environmental Pollen counts Humidity Temperature Wind Speed/ direct. Allergy Index Pollution HUMAN BEHAVIORS OTC Pharm Absenteeism Utilities Coughs Web Queries Traffic Survey Public Transport Cafeteria Video Surv Newsgroup NON TRADITIONAL USES Tests ordered Complaints Poison Centers 911 Calls EMS Runs Nurse Calls ER Visits Prescriptions Radiograph Reports CLINICAL DATA Test Results Diagnosis Influenza isolates Medical Examiner Test Results Sentinel MD Investigations

7 BioSense: The Initiative Identify common state and local needs Promote the use of national standards Increase the sharing of approaches and technology Ensure integration with other public health systems

8 BioSense: The System National safety net for early detection in major cities Infrastructure and data acquisition for near real-time reporting A platform for the implementation and evaluation of different analytic approaches Connection to the CDC BioIntelligence Center to support early detection analysis at local, state and national levels

9 Current (Phase I) Data Sources DoD Ambulatory Care and ER Diagnoses - Up to four diagnosis codes (IDC-9-CM) identifying the reason for every ambulatory care (including ER) visit DoD - Procedures - Procedure codes (CPT) ordered for every ambulatory care visit VA - Ambulatory Care and ER Diagnoses -Diagnosis codes (IDC-9-CM) for every ambulatory care visit (including ER) in 172 hospitals and 650 outpatient clinics nationwide VA Procedures- Procedure codes (CPT) for every ambulatory care visit Clinical Laboratory Tests -Clinical lab tests ordered nationally through LabCorp BioWatch Results -Lab result for BioWatch environmental collectors

19 BioSense User-Defined Options Data Selection Options

20 Early Detection at the Federal Level Support coverage for the nation. Maintain responsibility for providing public health guidance (legal authority). Coordinate broadly across jurisdictions.

21 Expanded Geographic Scope Wider variation in heterogeneity. System implications grow in complexity. Focus here on data issues in this regard.

22 Analytic Components of Early Detection and BioSense Developmental Process Data Management Statistical Analysis Public Health Decision Making Information System Development

23 Empirical Process for Analysis No sampling design Confounding: Reporting volume Event intensity Learn from experience Inductive and deductive analytic procedures

24 Important Data Characteristics Spontaneously generated Opportunistic Noisy Messy Duplicate/repeat records Geographic indicators vary Multiple sources Geographic distribution Lag time

25 Data Lag Time Really Timely surveillance Variable percentages of data available for most recent days Little attention to this in algorithm evaluations

26 Surveillance System Components Population of interest which generates events Public Health Response Measurement and Recording Transactional Data Interpretation for associations, Trends, unusual patterns, signals Analytical Applications Data Management Quality checks Editing Data preprocessing for a specific purpose ( views, data marts )
