DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specific aims of IDPH in this project to develop and implement an enhanced Pesticide Poisoning Surveillance Program are to: 1. Establish and maintain a scientific advisory committee that includes appropriate state partners, local public health agencies, and other stakeholders to identify relevant Iowa-specific issues and priorities for pesticide poisoning surveillance. 2. Collect and investigate reports of pesticide poisoning. 3. Analyze pesticide poisoning surveillance data. 4. Publish pesticide poisoning surveillance results, interpretations, and conclusions. 5. Conduct an annual evaluation of the accomplishments and impact of the pesticide poisoning surveillance program. The mission of the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) is to promote and protect the health of lowans. IDPH is committed to improving the hearth of all lowans through the delivery of the core functions and essential services of public health. Goal Statement 6-13 and Action Steps 6-13.1 to 6-13.3 in Healthy lowans 2010 (IDPH 2005) establish the reduction of pesticide poisoning in Iowa as a priority for IDPH in its mission to promote and protect the health of lowans. Funding of the enhanced surveillance program will allow IDPH to conduct the following activities: Identify clusters/outbreaks and groups at high risk for pesticide-related illness/injury. Identify high-risk pesticide active ingredients and products associated with pesticide-related illness. Target regulatory, enforcement, consultative, or educational interventions to prevent and control pesticide-related illness/injury. Evaluate the effectiveness of prevention efforts. Data from the National Agricultural Statistics Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture show that for 1999 to 2002, Iowa was second only to Illinois in pounds of herbicide applied to com, and first among states in pounds of herbicide applied to soybeans. Statistics are not available for the pounds of herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides applied to turf, golf courses, gardens, homes, and fruit and vegetable production However, the pounds of herbicide and pesticide applied to Iowa corn and soybeans alone are sufficient to show that the surveillance of pesticide poisoning should be a priority for Iowa.

描述（由申请人提供）：IDPH在本项目中的具体目标是制定和实施一个增强的农药中毒监测计划：1。建立和维持一个科学咨询委员会，包括适当的国家合作伙伴，当地公共卫生机构和其他利益相关者，以确定相关的爱荷华州的具体问题和农药中毒监测的优先事项。2.收集和调查农药中毒报告。3.分析农药中毒监测数据。4.发布农药中毒监测结果、解释和结论。5.对农药中毒监测项目的成果和影响进行年度评估。爱荷华州公共卫生部的使命是促进和保护爱荷华州人的健康。IDPH致力于通过提供公共卫生的核心职能和基本服务来改善所有洛瓦人的健康状况。《2010年健康的艾奥瓦州人》（IDPH 2005）中的目标声明6-13和行动步骤6-13.1至6-13.3将减少爱荷华州的农药中毒作为IDPH促进和保护艾奥瓦州人健康的使命的优先事项。为加强监测方案提供资金将使IDPH能够开展以下活动：确定与农药有关的疾病/伤害的高风险集群/爆发和群体。确定与农药相关疾病有关的高风险农药活性成分和产品。针对监管、执法、咨询或教育干预措施，以预防和控制与农药有关的疾病/伤害。评估预防工作的有效性。美国农业部国家农业统计局的数据显示，1999年至2002年，爱荷华州在玉米除草剂使用量方面仅次于伊利诺斯州，在大豆除草剂使用量方面位居各州之首。目前还没有用于草坪、高尔夫球场、花园、家庭以及水果和蔬菜生产的除草剂、杀虫剂和杀真菌剂的统计数据。但是，仅用于爱荷华州玉米和大豆的除草剂和杀虫剂的数量就足以表明，对农药中毒的监测应该是爱荷华州的优先事项。
