A minimum data set consisting of 15 data elements originating from laboratory submissions and results was formulated by a national committee of epidemiologists in Canada for the purposes of disease reporting, disease detection and analysis. The data set consists of both data that are filled out on the submission form as well as the results of the laboratory testing. The elements in the data set are unique identifier, premises identification, date submitted, geographic location, species, farm type, group type, total population of tested species on the farm, number sick, number dead, test(s) performed, disease agent, test result, disease classification by submitter and final laboratory diagnosis. The data set was designed to be concise while allowing for domestic and international disease reporting, effective analysis, including geographic, temporal and prevalence outputs, and syndromic surveillance to enable disease detection. The selected data elements do not identify the producer as specific geographic and nominal information is not included in the data set. The data elements selected, thus, allow for voluntary collaboration and data sharing by avoiding issues associated with privacy legislation.
