Evaluation of the representativeness of a sentinel surveillance site for campylobacteriosis
Epidemiology and Infection, 2014 SUMMARYIt is important to assess the suitability of sentinel sites for human disease; however, there have been few publications documenting the process of formal evaluation. We describe an approach to examining the representativeness of a single sentinel site employed for campylobacteriosis surveillance and source attribution, utilizing a selection of ...

Comparing methods for sentinel surveillance site placement
Emerging Health Threats Journal, 2011 Introduction ILI data are collected via an Influenza Sentinel Provider Surveillance Network at the state level. Because participation is voluntary, locations of the sentinel providers may not reflect optimal geographic placement. This study analyzes two different geographic placement schemes*a maximal coverage model (MCM) and a K-median model, two ...
