By tracking symptoms of patients in EDs and other settings—before and after a diagnosis is confirmed, all in near real-time—public health can detect unusual levels of illness to determine whether a response is needed. Public health also uses syndromic data to monitor disease trends.Syndromic data can serve as an early warning system to protect Americans from respiratory viruses, environmental threats, avoidable injuries, emerging diseases, and more.Syndromic surveillance is a collaborative effort among local and state health departments, CDC, and partners.New usersIf you are learning syndromic surveillance for the first time, we've got resources to help.Syndromic Surveillance for New UsersHow it worksHere is a high-level view of how syndromic surveillance works:* People seek treatment.* The medical facility sends de-identified data—including chief complaint, diagnosis codes, patient characteristics, and location—to state and local health departments or to data aggregators such as Health Information Exchanges.* Public health departments and Health Information Exchanges contribute data to the NSSP BioSense Platform.* Public health practitioners, many of whom are part of our community of practice, will access data via the BioSense Platform to conduct surveillance activities for monitoring public health.This map shows emergency care NSSP facility participation by county:View LargerDownloadDark blue counties contain at least one eligible non-federal emergency care facility that sent at least one valid patient visit record in the last three months.
