An Empirical Study of the Effect of Sentinel Sample Size in Syndromic Surveillance Using a Space-Time Permutation Method
Content Type: Abstract
Our goal was to assess the impact of sentinel sample size and criteria for a signal on performance of daily prospective space-time permutation detection by comparing results in varying size random samples from a large health plan to results found in… read more -
Data Model for Initiatives to Monitor Exposure to Antimicrobials (DataMIME)
Content Type: Abstract
Despite decades of attempts to promote judicious AU, the US has high rates of per-person antimicrobial consumption, and extremely high rates of carbapenem use. Such profligate use is a key factor in the high rate of antimicrobial-resistant… read more -
An Empirical Study of the Effect of Sentinel Sample Size in Syndromic Surveillance Using a Space-Time Permutation Method
Content Type: Abstract
There is limited closed-form statistical theory to indicate how well the prospective space-time permutation scan statistic will perform in the detection of localized excess illness activity. Instead, detection methods can be applied to simulated… read more
