The UK has experienced various animal health events that have had national impact in recent years. In response, a ;Veterinary Surveillance Strategy' (VSS) was published in 2003, with the objective of enhancing and coordinating national veterinary surveillance practice in a way that would enable important animal health events to be detected and assessed more rapidly and reliably. The VSS adopts an integrated UK-wide approach, which includes widespread engagement with interested parties both within government and beyond. It proposes enhancing surveillance through improved collaboration; transparent and defensible prioritisation of government resources to surveillance; deriving better value from existing resources, and assuring quality of the surveillance reports and source data. This article describes progress with implementing the VSS, in particular the methodology for developing a functional network and creating an effective, quality-assured, information management system, RADAR.
近年来，英国经历了多起对全国产生影响的动物健康事件。作为回应，2003年发布了一项《兽医监测战略》（VSS），其目标是以能够更快速、可靠地检测和评估重要动物健康事件的方式，加强和协调全国兽医监测工作。VSS采用全英国范围的综合方法，包括与政府内外的相关方广泛接触。它提议通过加强合作来增强监测；对政府用于监测的资源进行透明且合理的优先排序；从现有资源中获取更大价值，并确保监测报告和源数据的质量。本文描述了实施VSS的进展情况，特别是开发功能网络和创建一个有效、有质量保证的信息管理系统——RADAR的方法。
