To perform preventive, control and eradication policies about the disease, we need the exact epidemiologic information and patterns of brucellosis in our country. In this study, we invstiagated frequency of reported cases of Brucellosis to province health center from public and private sectors in Semnan during 2006-2007 Materials And Methods
In this descriptive study, we only enrolled the patients who had brucellosis in 2006-7 and there was a record of their disease in the public health centers of Semnan including Sorkheh, Mehdishahr and Shahmirzad. A checklist was prepared for the patients and the data analyzed by computer. Results
The findings showed that only 26 out of 62 (41.9%) patients with brucellosis had a disease record in the health center of Semnan province. Private laboratories, educational hospitals, general practitioner and specialist physicians’ surgeries reported only 7.6, 20, 18.2 and 50% of their diagnosed brucellosis cases to the health center of Semnan province, respectively. Three patients with brucellosis who were diagnosed in non-educational hospitals had no a disease record in the health center of Semnan province. Meanwhile, 93.7% of the cases were diagnosed in one of the public heath centers had a disease record in the heath center of Semnan province. Conclusion
