7-1-7 Basics
The number of days the 7-1-7 target gives for outbreak detection.
What is 7 days?
For a non-endemic disease, this is the date the index case first experienced symptoms.
What is Date of emergence?
Barriers or obstacles that delay detection, notification, or early response are called this.
What are Bottlenecks?
The letter 'S' in SMART actions stands for this.
What is Specific?
EAR stands for this
What is Early Action Review?
Infectious diseases grow this way, which is why speed matters in the 7-1-7 target.
What is Exponentially?
This is the date the event is first recorded by any source or any system.
What is Date of detection?
Factors that speed up or facilitate prompt detection and response are called this.
What are Enablers?
The letter 'T' in SMART actions stands for this.
What is Time-bound?
EARs ideally happen during this phase of an outbreak.
What is Early phase (real-time)?
The 7-1-7 framework measures performance in three intervals: detect, notify, and this.
What is Respond / Early response?
The date the event is first reported to a public health authority responsible for action.
What is Date of notification?
This root-cause technique asks 'Why?' up to five times to find actionable bottlenecks.
What is 5 Why's?
Immediate actions can be done right away using existing funds; actions that need extra resources or staffing are called this.
What are Longer-term actions?
The 7-1-7 lifecycle step that comes after identifying bottlenecks and enablers.
What is Determine actions?
