Evaluations in tier 2 surveillance sites for the National Surveillance System for Enteric Fever in India
MMGH conducted an independent external evaluation of the tier 2 sites of the National Surveillance System for Enteric Fever in India (NSSEFI). These sites are secondary level hospitals, conducting surveillance on patients with suspected enteric fever. Most of the hospitals are located in remote areas in India and some of them have established blood culture capacity. The evaluation, which was conducted after the completion of one full year of surveillance, helped in identifying problems with case detection and enrolment, laboratory investigation and data management, and to take corrective measures to address them.
