项目摘要

EHS-Net Food Safety Project Summary/Abstract The long-term objective of the proposed work is to reduce foodborne illness associated with commercial food establishments in Minnesota and the entire U.S. Specific aims are to: 1) increase and improve environmental assessments conducted during foodborne illness outbreak investigations; 2) identify contributing factors and antecedents factors associated with foodborne illness outbreaks; 3) identify and understand environmental factors associated with sporadic foodborne illness through special studies; 4) evaluate food safety programs in Minnesota; 5) synthesize and disseminate the findings from EHS-Net research projects to the environmental health community and the food service industry; and, 6) develop, implement, and evaluate interventions at commercial food establishments that will reduce the incidence of foodborne illness. The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has been a leader and active participant in EHS-Net since its inception and proposes to continue EHS-Net involvement in the same fashion going forward. Environmental health specialists from the MDH Division of Environmental Health and epidemiologists from the MDH Foodborne, Waterborne, Vectorborne, and Zoonotic Diseases Section will continue to comprise the MDH EHS- Net team and will work closely together to conduct EHS-Net activities. Active population-based surveillance for reportable bacterial and protozoal pathogens will be conducted, along with state-of the art outbreak detection and investigation. Environmental assessments will be conducted on all foodborne outbreaks in commercial food establishments in Minnesota using standard tools to allow collection of high quality data for the National Environmental Assessment Reporting System [NEARS]. Special studies to identify practices, behaviors, or other risk factors that lead to sporadic foodborne illness will be conducted at random samples of restaurants in previously selected sampling frameworks. Another proposed project is to survey operators to better understand how to effectively implement and evaluate interventions at commercial food establishments. Additionally, we have proposed research looking at inspection reports preceding outbreak restaurants to determine if there are any trends in the violations that are observed. MDH will continue to build communication and collaborations with EHS-Net partners (other states, CDC, FDA, and EPA) and will actively participate in multi-site studies decided on by the EHS-Net Steering Committee. Education of environmental health specialists and industry groups throughout Minnesota, based on lessons learned from EHS-Net, will continue to be actively pursued.

EHS-Net食品安全项目摘要/摘要拟议工作的长期目标是减少相关的食源性疾病与明尼苏达州和整个美国的商业食品机构合作，具体目标是为：1)增加和改进在食源性食品生产过程中进行的环境评估疾病暴发调查；2)确定致病因素和先行因素与食源性疾病暴发有关；3)识别和了解环境通过专门研究与散发性食源性疾病相关的因素；4)评估明尼苏达州的食品安全计划；5)综合和传播来自 EHS-面向环境健康社区和食品服务的网络研究项目工业；以及，6)开发、实施和评估商业食品干预措施将减少食源性疾病发病率的机构。明尼苏达州卫生部(MDH)一直是该项目的领导者和积极参与者 EHS-Net自成立以来，并建议继续参与EHS-Net 时尚向前迈进。MDH分部的环境卫生专家环境健康和来自MDH食源性、水源性、病媒传播和人畜共患病组将继续组成MDH EHS- Net团队，并将密切合作开展EHS-Net活动。主动型将以人群为基础监测可报告的细菌和原生动物病原体与最先进的疫情检测和调查一起进行。年内会对所有经食物传播的疫情进行环境评估。明尼苏达州的商业食品机构使用标准工具允许收集国家环境评估报告系统的高质量数据 [临近]。专门研究，以确定实践、行为或其他导致到零星的食源性疾病，将在食肆随机抽样进行先前选定的采样框架。另一个拟议的项目是调查让操作员更好地了解如何有效实施和评估干预措施在商业食品店。此外，我们还提出了一项研究，着眼于在疫情爆发前的检查报告，以确定是否有任何趋势观察到的违规行为。 MDH将继续与EHS-Net合作伙伴建立沟通和合作关系 (其他州、CDC、FDA和EPA)，并将积极参与多站点研究由EHS-Net指导委员会决定。环境健康教育明尼苏达州的专家和行业团体，基于从 EHS-Net，将继续积极推进。
