Self-referenced health surveillance in localities of the Colón department.
In recent years, our environment has faced the reemergence of endemoepidemic viral diseases, such as Dengue, Zika, Chicungunya and, recently, Yellow Fever, transmitted by the Aedes spp vector. In all of them, the time elapsed between the appearance of the index case and the clinical-epidemiological...

| description | In recent years, our environment has faced the reemergence of endemoepidemic viral diseases, such as Dengue, Zika, Chicungunya and, recently, Yellow Fever, transmitted by the Aedes spp vector. In all of them, the time elapsed between the appearance of the index case and the clinical-epidemiological response is vital to contain the outbreak and to stop the transmission. However, ordinarily, the response time of the health team averages between 7 and 10 days. In order to shorten this time frame, an application for mobile devices was designed to notify febrile cases in real time by means of a self-referencing and geolocation system. It was implemented in Jesús María and other localities of influence through outreach actions that comprised the use of the application and different communication and education activities for the surveillance of these diseases, having as recipients of such actions the health team and the whole community. |

En los últimos años América Latina ha enfrentado la reemergencia de enfermedades virales endemoepidémicas tales como Dengue, Zika, Chicungunya y, recientemente, Fiebre Amarilla, transmitidas por el vector Aedes spp. En todas ellas, el tiempo transcurrido entre la aparición del caso índice y la respuesta clínico-epidemiológica resulta vital para contener el brote y frenar la transmisión. Sin embargo, de ordinario, el tiempo de respuesta del equipo de salud media entre 7 y 10 días.A fin de acortar este lapso se diseñó una aplicación para dispositivos móviles que permite notificar cuadros febriles en tiempo real por medio de un sistema de autoreferenciación y geolocalización. La misma se implementó en Jesús María y localidades de influencia mediante acciones extensionistas que incluyeron el uso de la aplicación y diferentes actividades de comunicación y educación para la vigilancia de estas enfermedades, teniendo como destinatarios el equipo de salud y el conjunto de la comunidad.
