Additional reports Communicable Diseases Surveillance Additional reports Australian Sentinel Practice Research Network Figure 5. Consultation rates for influenza-like illness, ASPREN, 1 January to 31 December 2005, by week of report The Research and Health Promotion Unit of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners operates the Australian Sentinel Practice Research Network (ASPREN). ASPREN is a network of general practitioners who report presentations of defi ned medical conditions each week. The aim of ASPREN is to provide an indicator of the burden of disease in the primary health setting and to detect trends in consultation rates. There are currently about 50 general practitioners participating in the network from all states and territories. Seventy-fi ve per cent of these are in metropolitan areas and the remainder are rural based. Between 4,000 and 6,000 consultations are recorded each week. Rate per 1,000 consultations 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 1 4 7 10 13 16 19 22 25 28 31 34 37 40 43 46 49 52 Week 2005 2004 The list of conditions is reviewed annually by the ASPREN management committee and an annual report is published. In 2005, eight conditions are being monitored, four of which are related to communicable diseases. These include infl uenza, gastroenteritis, varicella and shingles. There are two definitions for infl uenza for 2005. A patient may be coded once or twice depending on their symptoms. The defi nition for infl uenza 1 will include more individuals. Defi nitions of these conditions were published in Commun Dis Intell 2006;30:158. Data from 1 January to 31 December 2005 compared with 2004 are shown as the rate per 1,000 consultations in Figures 5 and 6. Figure 6.
