ABSTRACT
[Introduction] Based on data related to scarlet fever which was collected from the Disease Surveillance Information Reporting System in Beijing from 2005 to 2011,to explore the efficiency of Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) in detecting the onset of scarlet fever epidcmics.Models as C1-MILD (C1),C2-MEDIUM (C2) and C3-ULTRA (C3) were used.Tools for evaluation as Youden' s index and detection time were calculated to optimize the parameters and optimal model.Data on 2011 scarlet fever surveillance was used to verify the efficacy of these models.C1 (k=0.5,H=2σ),C2 (k=0.7,H=2σ),C3 (k=1.1,H=2σ) appeared to be the optimal parameters among these models.Youden' s index of C1 was 83.0% and detection time being 0.64 weeks,Youden' s index of C2 was 85.4% and detection time being 1.27 weeks,Youden' s index of C1 was 85.1% and detection time being 1.36 weeks.Among the three early warning detection models,C1 had the highest efficacy.Three models all triggered the signals within 4 weeks after the onset of scarlet fever epidemics.The early warning detection model of CUSUM could be used to detect the onset of scarlet fever epidemics,with good efficacy.
