When to use

• For any kind of diseae?
  • U general signs report to be used for any animal health problem which does not meet any of the priority syndromes.
  • There are two different ways to report health problems found in the field: U and P.
    • P is used for all cases which match any of the described priority syndromes which require a more urgent and focussed response from personnel.
    • U is used for all other cases that do not fit the priority syndromes and which do not require priority handling.

• What is a case?
  • A case is an incident or disorder
    • In one or more animals with the same problem.
    • In the same location (rural area, farm or community, but not necessarily the same owners)
    • At the same time or close to the same time.
  • Only need one report per disease event.
    • Do not send separate reports for each individual animal when there are animals with the same problem, in same location, at the same time.

Reporting Process

• Pelsa report
  • A farmer noticed that one or more animals are sick.
  • Farmer reports the problem to local Pelsa
  • Pelsa visits animal and/or talks to farmer
  • Pelsa sends a U report describing major signs, number of animals affected
    • Sign codes can be found using CKT [freetext sign] and KODE TAN.
  • Dinas staff automatically notified
  • Dinas staff respond by phone or visit as soon as they are able to.
    • Priority Syndrome reports will be answered before General reports and so reponse times may differ widely.

Codes required

• Signs - multiple signs each separated by a comma
• Species. If multiple species are affected, use the main species
• Location code (optional: if the reporter is reporting from a different village to the one in which he/she is registered),
• List of possible diagnoses
  • Pelsa reports – do not include diagnoses
  • Dinas staff, include one or more possible diagnoses from the Diagnosis code list, each separated by a comma.

Response

• SMS messages
  • A confirmation message is sent back to the sender
  • Immediate alerts are sent to veterinary technical staff responsible for that same area.
• Response messages will include a unique case identifier. This should be used for any further reports relating to the same case (response, treatment, specimen submission etc)

Follow-up actions

Dinas veterinary staff will respond to the case

• Initial response is by telephone
• If possible, this is followed by a field visit to examine and treat the animals
