infected patients

•Bangladesh –
–5 –Drinking raw date palm juice
–4 –contact with a Nipahpatient
–1 –contact with a sick cow
–1 –close proximity with pig herds
•India –2 outbreaks –Retrospective investigation
nosocomial transmission

•5 Experts
•6 Post graduates

4.Dr. AnishT S
5.DrChinthaS

13. MAJOR ACTIVITIES
•Contact tracing
•Identification of potential points of contact
•Recommendations and Action plan
•Notification to be released to the public

14. Steps of epidemic investigation
1.Prepare for field work
2.Establish the existence of an outbreak
3.Verify the diagnosis
4.Define and identify cases
5.Perform descriptive epidemiology
6.Develop hypotheses
7.Evaluate hypotheses
8.Execute additional studies
9.Implement control and prevention measures
10.Communicate findings
11.Follow up recommendations

15. HOW WAS THIS OUTBREAK DETECTED
•Surveillance data –PEID cell, IDSP
•Medical Practitioner –Treating doctor –
physician, critical care specialist, neurologist,
microbiologist of BMH, MCH CLT
•Affected persons/groups –similar presentations
in family members and close contacts
•Concerned citizens
•Media-newspapers, news channels

16. WHY WAS AN INVESTIGATION ESSENTIAL
•Immediate
–to control spreadfrom existing
confirmed cases
-to control spread of disease from
contacts, if symptomatic
•Program considerations –Isolation wards,
Better diagnostic facilities
Time when authorities are more receptive
Lacunae in populations covered
Failures in usual strategies (here, Universal
health precautions, cough etiquette)
Identify areas to focus on in later programs

17. RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES
•Recently recogniseddisease –emerging viral infections
•Reasons for emergence
•Describe and define natural history, epidemiological
profile
•Characterize population at risk
•Identify risk factors
•Assess and recommend control measures
•Develop better, cost effective and accessible
techniques for laboratory and epidemiological
purposes

18. •TRAINING
for post graduate students,
health care workers in infection control
measures
•PUBLIC, POLITICAL AND LEGAL CONCERNS –
responsible decision makers and
Dresponsiveauthorities

19. CONTROL AND PREVENTIVE MEASURES
QUESTIONS FACED
•Cases still occuring?
•Epidemiological patterns in cases
•History of evolution of cases from index case
•In which stage of epidemic presently
•Duration of this phase
•Expected duration of second phase
•Population at risk

20. How was this outbreak established?
•Comparison of data
•Collection of data –from State PEID cell, IDSP
(DHS) from the declaration of Nipahoutbreak
included hospital records, mortality data

21. HOW WAS DIAGNOSIS VERIFIED?
•Proper diagnosis of reported cases –RNA PCR
•review clinical findings –compare with
existing literature
•review laboratory results
•summarize the clinical findings with frequency
–yet to be done

22. HOW WERE CASES DEFINED?
•Standard set of criteria for the health
condition
•Clinical criteria (signs and symptoms)
•Restrictions by time, place and person

23. SUSPECT NIPAH CASE
•Person from a communityaffected by a Nipahvirus disease outbreak who has:
Fever with new onset of altered mental status or seizure and/or
Fever with headache and/or
Fever with Cough or shortness of breath
PROBABLE NIPAH CASE
•Suspect case-patient/s who resided in the same villagewhere suspect/confirmed
case of NIPAH were living during the outbreak period and who died before
complete diagnostic specimens could be collected.
•OR
•Suspect case-patients who came in direct contactwith confirmed case-patients
in a hospitalsetting during the outbreak period and who died before complete
diagnostic specimens could be collected.
CONFIRMED NIPAH CASE
•Suspected case who has laboratory confirmationof Nipahvirus infection either
by:
Nipahvirus RNA identified by PCRfrom respiratory secretions, urine, or
cerebrospinal fluid.
Isolationof Nipahvirus from respiratory secretions, urine or cerebrospinal
fluid.

24. Definition of a Contact:
•A Close contact is defined as a patient or a person who came in
contact with a Nipahcase (confirmed or probable cases) in at least
one of the following ways.
–Was admitted simultaneouslyin a hospital ward/ shared room with a
suspect/confirmed case of NIPAH
–Has had direct close contact with the suspect/confirmed case of NIPAH
during the illness including during transportation.
–Has had direct close contact with the (deceased) suspect/confirmed
case of NIPAH at a funeral or during burial preparation rituals
–has touched the blood or body fluids (saliva, urine, vomitus etc.) of a
suspect/confirmed case of NIPAH during their illness
–has touched the clothesor linens of a suspect/confirmed case of
NIPAH
•These contacts need to be followed up for appearance of symptoms
of NiVfor the longest incubation period (21 days).

25. IDENTIFY AND COUNT CASES
•Basic information
•Demographic information
•Clinical information
•Information about risk factors
Already line list and detailed list of cases from
PEID cell available
