Surveillance Measures in Epidemiology
Epidemiology has a variety of sub-disciplines. Each of these sub-disciplines has different measures they use to determine the severity or communicability of various diseases. Select top 3 diseases in the U.S. and explain each The two classic measures are incidence and prevalence. However, there are other measures of disease measurement, which can include:
Morbidity
Incidence
Cumulative Incidence
Incidence Density
Incidence Rate
Prevalence
Period Prevalence
Point Prevalence
Mortality
Case Fatality Rate 
Proportionate Mortality Rate
Age Specific Death Rate
Age-Adjusted Rate
Direct Age Adjustment
Indirect Age Adjustment
Years of Potential Life Lost
Outbreak Specific Calculations
R0 (R naught or Reproductive Ratio)
Attack Rate (usually used for foodborne pathogens)
Secondary Attack Rate (used for any communicable disease to describe the percentage of secondary cases)
Discussion:
