Site assessment tool for Global Rotavirus Surveillance Network & Global Pediatric Diarrhea Surveillance
Version 02 March 2020
Site Assessment Tool Introduction The World Health Organization-coordinated Global Rotavirus Surveillance Network (GRSN) and the Global
Pediatric Diarrhea Surveillance (GPDS)* Network is designed to provide valuable data on burden and etiology of pediatric acute watery diarrhea, dysentery, and persistent diarrhea among hospitalized children under the age of five. Using a standardized core variable table and basic surveillance protocol, participating sites have adapted surveillance tools to local standards and are currently implementing prospective surveillance. Local adaptation of the protocol and data collection tools may lead to avoidable and unavoidable site differences in admission procedures, case mixes, and laboratory capacity. Such differences may affect the interpretation of variable burden and etiology between sites and across regions Site assessments will be conducted to identify sources of heterogeneity in data collection procedures (if any) at each rotavirus or pediatric diarrhea surveillance site. The site assessment tool is designed to collect data at the site level (not country or regional level). Collecting information at this level will enable comparisons across sites within a country or region to verify that the same information is being collected. Some sites may use the same tools, in which case a single set of translations will be used, but all other information will be collected at the site level. Site assessments will be conducted by WHO and site supervisors. Site assessments will include information collected prior to the visit, direct observation by site assessment teams and site supervisor report (or interview). These activities (and objectives) are grouped as follows:
1) Case Report Form (CRF) Abstraction for Identification & Classification of Cases – To determine
differences in the way questions are worded across sites. For example, some sites may define dysentery by caregiver report alone, by observation in the hospital, or by both methods which could influence the frequency dysentery is reported.
2) Site Reporting/Interview and Observation of General Site Practices – Through reporting by site leaders and confirmed by observation, establish how and which children are selected into the
rotavirus or pediatric diarrhea surveillance site. 3) Direct Observation of Surveillance Enrollees – To observe, first-hand, how the process from
screening to stool sample storage occurs. Direct observation will also serve to validate, or identify discrepancies, between what is reported to be happening vs. what is actually happening at the site-level. Such information will provide an opportunity for identification of discrepancies and logistical realities that need to be accounted for in any recommended changes.
4) Malnutrition-specific Site Practices (Optional) – To determine how feasible it would be to include malnutrition screening in GPDS data collection.
*GRSN (Global Rotavirus Surveillance Network) is the surveillance of acute watery diarrhea, performed to
specifically identify rotavirus infection. GPDS (Global Pediatric Diarrhea Surveillance) is built off GRSN and
surveillance is expanded to include all types of diarrhea (acute watery diarrhea, dysentery, and persistent diarrhea)
performed to identify any pathogen causing diarrheal infection in children.

Direct Observation of GPDS/GRSN Enrollees
To be completed by WHO or site coordinator. Directly observe the entire process of screening and enrollment from 5 (or as many as is feasibly possible)
consecutively screened children during the monitoring visit time and record the following information from observation and available hospital files. This section can
still be completed for children who are determined to be ineligible for rotavirus or pediatric diarrhea surveillance. Do not abstract this information from CRFs as
this data will be used to verify information being recorded in CRFs. If children are screened from multiple wards, an attempt should be made to observe these
processes at each of the wards where recruitment is taking place. Information being collected in this section is being used solely for the purpose of external
monitoring/ quality assurance and not to be used for research purposes.
