This study proposes to adopt a combination of retrospective surveillance and prospective surveillance approach to document the rate of intussusception, the regional variation and trend over years at these 19 hospitals across India. The retrospective enquiry shall review records of last five years and prospective surveillance for new cases of intussusception for 18 months. The final design of surveillance adopted at site level ought to differ based on the context and challenges existing locally, therefore requiring customizable and adaptable strategies to ensure the feasibility of caring out surveillance at local site level. |
