Epi Information
Instructions for Hospital Discharge Data: All records meeting the ICD9-or ICD10-CM codes specified in the surveillance protocol should
be reviewed even if the case had already been identified through Active Surveillance in order to obtain potentially missing information.
If a case is captured through HDD and was previously identified through the network of practitioners, sites should check that the
abstracted information from active surveillance is current and complete. In the event that additional information is available, this should
be included in the FoodNet HUS surveillance system. If a discrepancy is identified, the most current information should be used.
44A. How was patient’s illness first identified by public health (state or local health department or EIP)?
Report of HUS case by a physician or service participating in the FoodNet HUS active surveillance network
Report of HUS case by a non-participating physician or service
Routine STEC infection active surveillance

Microbiology Report Form
Instructions: Enter the most relevant microbiology tests associated with this HUS case by specimen source. If multiple positive stool
specimens were tested, prioritize specimens tested by the SPHL or CDC. Include positive stool with any evidence of STEC, and, if
applicable, serum sent to CDC for testing of abxbodies against STEC and/or one other positive specimen if additional results are
available. In addition, you will be prompted to enter negative results (if applicable) only for evidence of STEC.
