To respond effectively to an anomaly, you first need a clear understanding of the data sources available to you. An overdose anomaly can be detected through both formal surveillance (e.g., syndromic surveillance, poison center, mortality data) and informal reporting (e.g., EMS, emergency departments, community partners).<\/span><\/p>\n
Identify and map all available data sources, noting how they can be accessed, how overdoses are defined within each system, and how they can be combined to confirm potential anomalies. Obtain records of interest, including EMS, ED, and hospital records, retrospective data, and any narratives that may be available.<\/span><\/p>\n
Create tools such as line listings to explore potential linkages among related cases by person, place, and time, while being mindful that case linkage or matching should only occur within the bounds of existing data use agreements.<\/span><\/p>\n
Leverage key data sources like SUDORS and PDMPs to track overdoses, identify hotspots, and flag communities or individuals at high risk.<\/span><\/p>\n
Create a comprehensive data catalog of traditional and non-traditional sources using this template<\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
