普渡大学建立了一项国家伴侣动物监测计划（NCASP），利用每周在44个州300家班菲尔德医院就诊的80000只伴侣动物的电子病历，监测临床症状和疾病。在疾病控制和预防中心的资助下，NCASP最初是用于对A类生物恐怖主义制剂的综合征监测。通过纳入Antech Diagnostics的电子报告，扩大了监测范围。Antech Diagnostics是一个由综合兽医诊断实验室组成的全国性网络，为近1.8万家私人兽医诊所提供服务。NCASP描述并显示狗、猫和其他伴侣动物疾病的时间和空间模式。它检测不寻常的潜在新发/人畜共患感染群集，并监测跳蚤和蜱虫的活动。使用SAS和ESRI软件产品对数据进行处理和分析。兽医可以使用NCASP，通过为特定地理区域的动物提供个性化疫苗方案所需的信息，来加强他们的循证医学实践。
A National Companion Animal Surveillance Program (NCASP) was established at Purdue University to monitor clinical syndromes and diseases using the electronic medical records of > 80,000 companion animals visiting > 300 Banfield hospitals weekly in 44 states. With funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, NCASP was initially developed for syndromic surveillance of Category A agents of bioterrorism. Surveillance was expanded through inclusion of electronic reports from Antech Diagnostics, a nationwide network of integrated veterinary diagnostic laboratories serving > 18,000 private veterinary practices. NCASP characterizes and displays temporal and spatial patterns of diseases in dogs, cats, and other companion animals. It detects unusual clusters of potential emerging/zoonotic infections and monitors flea and tick activity. Data is processed and analyzed using SAS and ESRI software products. The NCASP can be used by veterinarians to enhance their practice of evidence-based medicine by providing information needed to individualize vaccine protocols for animals in specific geographic areas.
