This paper deals with the question which contribution to the pig health care decision-making process might be provided by monitoring and surveillance systems (MOSS). The principles of such systems and potential applications at the administrative level, public health level and primary producers' level are presented together with indications about possibilities and limitations. The different application levels are determined by the respective objectives and the different types of diseases. It is concluded that MOSS can positively contribute to the pig health care but under strict conditions and not in all cases.
本文探讨了监测与监督系统（MOSS）对生猪保健决策过程可能做出的贡献。介绍了此类系统的原理及其在行政层面、公共卫生层面和初级生产者层面的潜在应用，并说明了其可能性和局限性。不同的应用层面由各自的目标和不同类型的疾病决定。得出的结论是，MOSS能够对生猪保健做出积极贡献，但需在严格条件下，且并非在所有情况下都能如此。
