During the summer of 2015, the Pan American and Parapan American Games took place in the Greater Toronto area of Ontario, Canada, bringing together thousands of athletes and spectators from around the world. The Acute Care Enhanced Surveillance (ACES) system-a syndromic surveillance system that captures comprehensive hospital visit triage information from acute care hospitals across Ontario-monitored distinct syndromes throughout the games. We describe the creation and use of a risk assessment tool to evaluate alerts produced by ACES during this period. During the games, ACES generated 1420 alerts, 4 of which were considered a moderate risk and were communicated to surveillance partners for further action. The risk assessment tool was useful for public health professionals responsible for surveillance activities during the games. Next steps include integrating the tool within the ACES system.
2015年夏季,泛美运动会和泛美残疾人运动会在加拿大安大略省大多伦多地区举行,来自世界各地的数千名运动员和观众齐聚一堂。急性护理强化监测(ACES)系统——一种症状监测系统,可从安大略省各地的急诊医院收集全面的医院就诊分诊信息——在整个运动会期间监测不同的症状。我们描述了一种风险评估工具的创建和使用,以评估ACES在此期间产生的警报。运动会期间,ACES发出了1420次警报,其中4次被认为是中度风险,并传达给监测伙伴以便采取进一步行动。该风险评估工具对负责运动会期间监测活动的公共卫生专业人员很有用。下一步包括将该工具整合到ACES系统中。
