Pesticide. The New York State Department of Health, Bureau of Occupational Health, proposes to continue and expand surveillance of pesticide poisonings in New York State (NYS), with the goal of continuing and improving case ascertainment and public health intervention and prevention activities. These activities will be conducted by the New York State Pesticide Poisoning Registry (NYSPPR). This program receives reports from physicians, health facilities and clinical laboratories and offers timely follow- up and intervention in various exposure situations. Program objectives include the following: improve reporting and case ascertainment; utilize registry reports and surveillance data to guide public health interventions; provide education; conduct industrial hygiene interventions, consultations and site visits; develop and disseminate hazard prevention recommendations and strategies; continue to update and improve the nationally distributed Sentinel Event Notification Systems for Occupational Risks (SENSOR) Pesticide Incident Data Entry and Reporting (SPIDER) software program; produce and disseminate annual data summaries and intervention synopses; identify new applications for the NYSPPR as new health threats emerge; continue and expand collaborations; and conduct evaluations of program activities. This program has been and will continue to be an integral part of surveillance activities developed to identify and characterize possible health effects related to West Nile Virus mosquito control programs in New York State. In addition, as part of the terrorism preparedness planning process after the events of September 11, 2001, the NYSPPR has been identified as a potential resource in surveillance for chemical terrorism events involving pesticides - for both sentinel event and post-event surveillance.
