[Information systems in epidemiology].
At present epidemiological informations are dispatched from epidemiological departments of regional hygiene stations in different forms to different departments. The separate follow up of partial information leads to the development of different isolated information systems. Individual information systems help to resolve information problems in epidemiology, they provide, however, only limited opportunities when causal relations are sought and applied in the control of diseases. Surveillance calls for a uniform information system which concentrates scattered information in a single epidemiological centre. The author formulates possible approaches to the solution of the information problem in epidemiology.
