Follow-up

Implication

Environmental surveillance detects enteroviruses; leaves open its comparative value versus AFP or sentinel systems.

Structured PICO

Population

5450 sewage samples from four sewage treatment plants of various capacities in Moscow, Russia

Intervention

Environmental surveillance (sewage monitoring) for poliovirus and enteroviruses

Comparator

Acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance and clinical case incidence

Outcome

Detection of polioviruses and non-polio enteroviruses

Sewage monitoring is an important component of enterovirus surveillance that yields significantly more poliovirus isolates than AFP surveillance, though it cannot substitute other approaches.
