VITEC: Integrated, Agile and Precise (georeferenced) Surveillance

We have organized the concepts on this page into 5 groups: Benefits, Definitions, Features, Functions and Reports.
The health manager can understand a little more about the VITEC software specs, being enabled for using this information to decide to schedule a meeting for a demonstration of the VITEC Software for integrated health surveillance with technology (real-time monitoring in epidemiology, entomology and arboviruses).
We systematically update this page according to any engagement in the software acquisition process, aiming to facilitate the process for the professionals responsible for acquisition and monitoring of the software usage.


What is VITEC?

Benefits  Definitions  Features  Funcions  Reports 



BENEFITS

  1. CITY LEGACY: health manager “Empowerment” and city legacy through bureaucracy reduction to facilitate the leadership of the health manager – features that facilitate bureaucratic work such as creating reports to support health managers in decision making, data import and export for covenants participation and integration with other software and city map creation.

  2. REAL-TIME HEALTH PROMOTION: More time for planning and health promotion. The manager will be able to access main information coming from the field (routine visits, active searches) in real time, with data update dynamically, providing such managers with more time to list and propose preventive actions and routines in order to reduce diseases potential transmission and damage.

  3. PRODUCTIVITY IN FIELD VISITS: More time, agility and precision towards field visits - agile and accurate (georeferenced) data collection app to facilitate the work of endemic disease agents.


DEFINITIONS

  1. VITEC is an Integrated Surveillance Software with Information Technology for the Public Health area to manage and automate programs projected for diseases caused by viruses and transmitted directly from or by vectors, zoonoses and venomous animals accidents, enabling focus on prevention and planning, execution and monitoring of control actions.

  2. A tool that helps city hall managers and health agents with their labor of reducing insects’ infestation (such as the Aedes aegypti) diseases transmitters and the amount (charge) of virus transmission and thus preventively reducing healthcare assistance and hospital costs.

  3. Continuously improved to enable public health managers gather entomologic, epidemiologic, virologic, genomic, epizootic and environmental indicators into a single software with the aim of defining field prevention and control actions based on operational scenarios.

  4. Developed by CYGNUS, a company specialized in software for the environmental health area, with a team of qualified analysts whose vision is to develop an international environmental health information system.
