ESSENCE: Biosurveillance in
Support of the DoD Health Mission

Public Health Approach
Surveillance
Risk Factor
Identification
Is there a problem?
What is the problem? What is causing the disease?
Implementation
How is a program
deployed?
Intervention
What can be done to
eliminate
the risk factor?

What is ESSENCE?
Web-based medical
surveillance system developed
to alert public health authorities
of a possible biological warfare
attack or other infectious
disease outbreaks
Electronic

ESSENCE Delivers
• Web-based outbreak detection and alert
application
– Provides interactive reporting, structured analysis, and
ad hoc queries
• Uses sophisticated event detection algorithms to
alert users to possible outbreaks of infectious
diseases and biological incidents
– With E-mail, Pagers, or Mobile Phones
6
ESSENCE Delivers
• For select users, shows actionable patientidentifiable data for further investigation
and/or validation
• Supports investigation of reportable disease
events
• Data frequency
– Outpatient and pharmacy data updated every
24 hours
– Demographic data updated monthly
7
Current Data Sources
for ESSENCE
• Ambulatory data
– Outpatient visits to Military Treatment Facilities
– ICD9 codes (any diagnostic position, not just
primary)
• Pharmacy data
– Prescriptions ordered for military beneficiaries
(MTFs, mail orders, and retail pharmacies)
– Respiratory and gastrointestinal syndromes only

DoD Enhanced Surveillance
Experience to Date
• Most alerts unlikely to be significant if
– Low total number of cases (less than three)
– Small, unsustained spike
– No plausibly concerning pattern in specific ICD-9 diagnoses
• Local public health and preventive medicine staff are
almost always aware of problem before electronic
system triggers alarm associated with real outbreak
• Evidence of improving coding practices, data
completion, and timely data submission since instituting
an enhanced health surveillance program
22
Planned Enhancements
• New data sources
– Laboratory and radiology test orders
– Chief complaint text parsing
• Add field for local input regarding validity of alarms and
findings or status of any investigation
• Explore potential power of MEDCIN structured note analysis
• Environmental and occupational health hazard assessments
• Preventable disease and injury control
• System evaluation and planning based on population health
requirements rather than historical workload data
