我国性病监测的发展

本文总结了1987~1994年我国性病疫情监测系统的建立和发展，共经历了三个阶段:1.试行建立报病系统（被动监测）；2.逐步建立起全国的报病系统，并加以改进；3.建立哨点监测系统。经验表明，哨点监测的资料是全国报病系统的重要补充。为了利用有限的资源，了解性病流行趋势，较快地得到性病疫情资料为性病防治规划提供依据，应当不断完善哨点监测。本文书目前我国性病监测系统的作用提出了初步的看法，应当进一步对其作出评价。

For the purose of saving the limited re- sources ,getting the trends of STD epidemic and a rapid epidemiological assessment as a basis for STD control programme , the sentinel surveillance system should be improved. The advantages and limitations of the surveillance system were discussed .
