DevExplains: How WHO's incident management system works

https://youtu.be/GrIh1uDTOiY

Following the devastating Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the World Health Organization restructured the way it works in outbreaks and emergencies.
The reforms gave birth to WHO’s Health Emergencies Programme, a structure that defines lines of authority as well as operational processes and activities required during an emergency or outbreak.
One part of this new program is WHO’s incident management system, which determines how the aid agency organizes and coordinates its work between its three levels of the organization, partners and countries needing assistance in their response.
The IMS is similarly structured across the three levels of WHO, to ensure critical functions such as leadership, communications and logistics are present regardless if the emergency or outbreak is at the national, regional or global level.

Devex spoke with Wynne Boelt, communications officer for WHO’s Health Emergencies Programme, on the sidelines of the 70th World Health Assembly, to learn more. Watch the video above.

2019 NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (2019-nCoV ) STRATEGIC PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE PLAN FOR THE SOUTH-EAST ASIA REGION

Internationale response
At the global and regional level, WHO has activated an incident management system (IMS) together with technical and operational partners. Technical support is being provided to countries through regional and country offices. Existing coordination mechanisms of global expert networks and partnerships have been activated to provide a comprehensive technical package of interim guidance for 2019-nCoV materials, which is updated regularly as the outbreak evolves. Critical epidemiological updates have been collected, verified and shared with countries and partners through EIS, Disease Outbreak News, External SitReps, and the WHO website. Public health risk communication and advice for international travel and trade is being provided through various traditional and social media channels.
In China, as of 23 January 2020, the National Health Commission revised protection standards and specifications for medical workers and strengthened prevention and control measures against 2019-nCoV in hospitals. Citizens have been encouraged to reconsider the timing of overseas travel and measures have been introduced to try to stop the spread of the disease across the country. National authorities are conducting active case finding in all provinces, and the search for additional cases has been expanded within and outside of Wuhan.
In other countries with imported cases or a high risk of imported cases, a range of measures have been undertaken, including updated guidance and risk communication to enable possible cases to be rapidly identified, diagnosed and managed. Diagnostic tests and reference materials will be made available through global laboratory networks. Advice has been provided to travellers arriving in other countries from China.

Example sentence(s):
  • International level The WHO supports countries to strengthen their national core capacities for emergency risk management and to recover from emergencies due to any hazard that pose a threat to human health security, including infectious disease outbreaks [39]. During large cross-border outbreaks, the WHO leads and coordinates the health response in support of the countries by e.g. identifying priorities, setting strategies and providing technical guidance. In 2016 the WHO published the Joint External Evaluation Tool, a national selfassessment tool that can be used to assess a country’s capacity to prevent, detect, and rapidly respond to public health threats as part of the International Health Regulations (IHR) (2005) framework [40]. The tool is arranged according to the following core elements: preventing and reducing the likelihood of outbreaks and other public health hazards and events defined by IHR (2005) is essential, detecting threats early can save lives, responding rapidly and effectively, using multi-sectoral, national, and international coordination and communication. The tool combines selfevaluation, peer review and voluntary external evaluations involving a combination of national and independent experts. The purpose of the external evaluation process is to measure country specific status and progress in achieving the targets [40]. Coordination and collaboration between health facilities 267. Each region should establish an Incident Management System (IMS) with Emergency Executive Control Groups at facility, local, regional/state or national levels to exercise authority and direction over resources. Each IMS includes five functional areas—command, operations, planning, logistics and finance/administration. Within the regional IMS is a Central Triage Committee of experts with broad situational awareness, capacity to develop and modify protocols, monitor outcome and coordinate responses. - Defining quality in outbreak management  
  • On 31 december 2019, WHO was informed of a cluster of cases of pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan city, Hubei province of china. WHO is closely monitoring this event and is in active communication with counterparts in China. In line with standard protocols for any public health event, an Incident Management System has been activated across the three levels of WHO.

Yes  Kitty Brussaard: Vreemd genoeg zijn er geen relevante NL publicaties over dit onderwerp te vinden, maar ik neig ook naar deze vertaling (ook al kom je die normaliter vooral in andere contexten tegen).
9 days
  -> Dank je, Kitty. Ik had ook een rel. Ned. ref met 'incidentmanagementsysteem' verwacht en kon er niet 1 vinden. Dan moet je kijken naar wat het is: een 'incidentmanagementsysteem' en de weg terug naar het Engels is niet moeilijk.

Incidentbeheersysteem


Definition from computerwoorden.nl:
Incidentbeheersystemen helpen bedrijven en instellingen met het incidentbeheer, zodat incidenten kunnen worden gerapporteerd en ervan kan worden geleerd. Dit is in wezen hetzelfde als de specifieke toepassing van de WHO voor de pandemie, alleen op een andere schaal. De terminologie is eender.

Incident Management
Incidentbeheer
Het proces dat de primaire afhandeling van vragen, wensen en verstoringen verzorgt, inclusief de communicatie van en naar gebruikers en functioneel beheer. Incident Management regelt dus de afhandeling van vragen en incidenten. Het omvat derhalve ook een belangrijk deel van de activiteiten van een servicedesk.

Example sentence(s):
  • Een systeem voor het registreren en documenteren van ondersteuningsincidenten in het incidentbeheersysteem en het bewaken en beheren van meerdere ticketwachtrijen werd geïntroduceerd. - Aspira  
  • Issuedoc kan gemakkelijk gekoppeld worden aan de courante incidentbeheer-systemen, of geïntegreerd worden in reeds bestaande business applicaties en databases. - Geosparc  
  • Handel verzoeken om toegang tot gegevens en meldingen van inbreuk op efficiënte wijze af met een aangepast incidentbeheersysteem dat workflows automatiseert - Amplexor  

Explanation:
De term Incident Management / incidentenbeheer wordt vooral gebruikt in relatie tot het omgaan met incidenten door bedrijven en binnen software, maar bijvoorbeeld ook bij de brandweer. Het is echter logisch dat de WHO deze term ook gebruikt voor het rapporteren, registreren en afhandelen van incidenten gerelateerd tot een pandemie. Het principe is hetzelfde.
