Surveillance of bacterial infectious disease pathogens

• To monitor the current status of bacterial infectious diseases in the country, the system for monitoring waterborne and foodborne infectious disease pathogens (EnterNet) and respiratory bacterial infection pathogens (AriNet) is being operated.
• The pathogens collected through the operation of the monitoring system are utilized for early prediction of changes in the outbreak of bacterial infectious diseases and for preventing their spread through pathogen characteristic analysis.

• Collaborate with over 70 cooperative hospitals and 17 provincial and metropolitan health and environment research institutes to collect pathogens weekly and analyze key characteristics
• A laboratory-based pathogen monitoring system that comprehensively analyzes the outbreak region, timing, outbreak type, and pathogen characteristics to early predict and respond to the spread of infectious diseases

: serotype, toxin type, antibiotic resistance trends, genotype, etc.

이 이미지는 감염병 검사와 결과가 질병관리청까지 보고·환류되는 과정을 단계별로 나타낸다. ■ 1단계: 협조병(의원) - 설사환자 등 의심 환자의 검체를 제공. - 검사 결과를 통보받음. ■ 2단계: 보건환경연구원 - 협조병(의원)으로부터 받은 검체를 검사. - 결과를 매주 보고하고, 다른 기관과 결과를 매주 환류함. ■ 3단계: EnterNet 통합전산망 - 보건환경연구원의 결과를 매주 수집. - 매주 결과를 환류하여 공유. ■ 4단계: 질병관리청 - EnterNet 통합전산망을 통해 결과를 취합·관리. - 필요 시 양성검체(세균·바이러스) 제공. - 결과를 토대로 통합 정보 환류: 항생제 내성, 혈청형 등 분석 정보를 하위 기관에 제공. ■ 종합 해석 검체는 협조병(의원) → 보건환경연구원 → EnterNet → 질병관리청으로 전달되며, 검사 결과와 분석 정보는 다시 각 단계로 환류되어 현장 대응 및 정책 결정에 활용된다.

• A laboratory-based surveillance system focused on respiratory bacteria, operated to predict and respond to community respiratory infectious disease outbreaks early
• Weekly collection and analysis of pathogens isolated from pneumonia patients to analyze changes in pathogen distribution, epidemic patterns, and pathogen characteristics

: Serotype, toxin type, genetic type, antibiotic resistance trends, etc.
