Data analytics can enhance incorporated security to eliminate infectious conditions: Experts
The professionals reviewed the demand to enhance the security system at a meeting on “Surveillance of Communicable Diseases and Integration with the Health System: Lessons from COVID-19” arranged by Sun Pharma Science Foundation
New- age innovation like information analytics can enhance incorporated security for dealing with infectious conditions and also aid the country in reinforcing the general public medical care framework. In the middle of a pandemic that has actually tested the medical care system worldwide, professionals have actually suggested that “nextgen” security system can be created just with information analytics and also short-term estimates are feasible with compartmental and also network versions. The professionals reviewed the demand to enhance the security system at a meeting on “Surveillance of Communicable Diseases and Integration with the Health System: Lessons from COVID-19” arranged by Sun Pharma Science Foundation.
Surveillance for infectious conditions has actually come to be a lot more intricate than simply determining and also examining condition episodes. Effective security needs tracking of variety of various health criteria each with their very own networks of transmission.
Prof Virander S Chauhan, Chairman, Sun Pharma Science Foundation claimed, “A more pro-active approach to health surveillance is needed for the modern world. New-age technology has the capability to find solutions for such complex problems. However, the country requires skilled workforce to make sense of data and convert it into health intelligence. An important lesson that COVID-19 has taught the world is how to acquire and interpret data fast enough to make accurate and timely decisions.”
Dr Nikhil Tandon, Professor of Endocrinology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences and also convenor of this meeting included, “The objective of Integrated Disease Surveillance Program is to detect the early outbreaks. Through two-types of surveillance – indicator-based and event-based surveillance – Integrated Health Information Portal (IHIP) captures dis-aggregated data on more than 30 diseases/syndromes at all levels.”
