Programa gusano barrenador - vigilancia epidemiológica SENASA

Abstract

La organización ofrece servicios a la salud pública y animal, enfocados en las enfermedades de vigilancia de interés para Costa Rica y Los Estados Unidos de América, que se consideran de mayor importancia social, económica, comercial y del medio ambiente. El sector de mayor beneficio es el pecuario, sin embargo con la información y capacidad de cobertura generada se ha brindado ayuda a los sectores agrícola, salud, comité de nacional de emergencias, universidades, proyecto STDF-116 para Costa Rica de la Organización Mundial del Comercio, entre otros. El sistema de trabajo fortalecido con un convenio cooperativo que se encuentra cumpliendo 15 años, permite operar las 24 horas del día si fuese necesario, ejecutando vigilancia pasiva (es decir la que proviene de denuncias de los dueños de los animales enfermos) y vigilancia activa (que es aquella que se realiza con muestreos establecidos por el Departamento de Epidemiología del SENASA). Con el fin de diagnosticar y controlar las principales endémicas y descartar las exóticas. La cobertura del Programa es Nacional y se realiza eficaz y eficientemente gracias a la asignación de áreas de trabajo a los técnicos de campo y a la coordinación inter y extra institucional que existe. También existe coordinación y colaboración internacional a través del USDA y el APHIS.

The organization offers services to public and animal health, focusing on surveillance diseases of interest to Costa Rica and the United States of America, which are considered of major social, economic, commercial and environmental importance. The sector of greatest benefit is the livestock sector; however, with the information and coverage capacity generated, assistance has been provided to the agricultural and health sectors, the national emergency committee, universities, and the World Trade Organization's STDF-116 project for Costa Rica, among others. The work system, strengthened by a cooperative agreement that is now in its 15th year, allows us to operate 24 hours a day if necessary, carrying out passive surveillance (i.e. that which comes from reports from the owners of sick animals) and active surveillance (which is carried out through sampling established by SENASA's Epidemiology Department). The aim is to diagnose and control the main endemic diseases and rule out exotic ones. The Program's coverage is national and is carried out effectively and efficiently thanks to the assignment of work areas to field technicians and the inter and extra-institutional coordination that exists. There is also international coordination and collaboration through the USDA and APHIS.
