Abstract

Objective To comprehensively evaluate the quality of infectious disease reporting in infectious disease diagnosis and treatment institutions in Qinghai Province,and to improve the level of infectious disease reporting. Methods Improved TOPSIS method and descriptive epidemiology method were used to comprehensively analyze the quality of infectious disease reports in Qinghai Province,including the normal operation rate of institutional network,the timely reporting rate,the timely review rate and the complete rate of valid ID card. Results From 2017 to 2022,the quality of infectious disease reports improved year by year,and the top comprehensive evaluation by year and by city autonomous (prefecture) were 2020 and Haidong City.The cumulative number of report cards from 2017 to 2022 was 267 227,mainly in general hospitals,accounting for 89.62% of the total number of report cards.The number of infectious disease diagnosis and treatment institutions showed an increasing trend year by year.The difference of timely reporting rates and timely review rates between 2017 and 2022 was statistically significant (χ2=5 157.744,P< 0.001;χ2=968.249,P< 0.001).There was a statistical significance in the timely reporting rate of notifiable infectious diseases in different regional medical institutions and medical institutions of different administrative levels during 2020-2022 (χ2=5 782.368,P< 0.001;χ2=1 806.707,P<0.001). Conclusion The quality of infectious disease reports in Qinghai Province has been improving year by year,but there are still problems such as missing reports,untimely reports,incomplete reports etc.Institutions should standardize the establishment of infectious disease reporting departments,fixed full-time staff to manage reporting work,so as to further improve the quality of infectious disease reporting.

Public Health Ontario (PHO) publishes various infectious disease surveillance reports, but none have yet been formally evaluated.PHO evaluated its monthly and annual infectious disease surveillance reports to assess public health stakeholders' current perception of the products and to develop recommendations for improving future products.An evaluation consisting of an online survey and a review of public Web sites of other jurisdictions with similar annual reports.For the online survey, stakeholder organizations targeted were the 36 local public health units and the Health health ministry in Ontario, Canada.Survey participants included epidemiologists, managers, directors, and other public health practitioners from participating organizations.Online survey respondents' awareness and access to the reports, their rated usefulness of reports and subsections, and suggestions for improving usefulness; timeliness of select annual reports from other jurisdictions based on the period from data described to report publication.Among 57 survey respondents, between 74% and 97% rated each report as useful; the most common use was for situational awareness. Respondents ranked timeliness as the most important attribute of surveillance reports, followed by data completeness. Among 6 annual reports reviewed, the median time to publication was 11.5 months compared with 23.2 months for PHO.Recommendations based on this evaluation have already been applied to the monthly report (eg, focusing on the most useful sections) and have become key considerations when developing future annual reports and other surveillance reporting tools (eg, need to provide more timely reports). Other public health organizations may also use this evaluation to inform aspects of their surveillance report development and evaluation. The evaluation results have provided PHO with direction on how to improve its provincial infectious disease surveillance reporting moving forward, and formed a basis for future work in surveillance product development and evaluation.
