BCoDE – Burden of Communicable Diseases in Europe
The experience of the BCoDE software toolkit – GHME Conference 2013 18 June 2013
Burden of Communicable Diseases in Europe project (BCoDE)
• ECDC has initiated the BCoDE study in 2009 in order to assess the comparative impact of infectious diseases in Europe
• A large academic and public health consortium is involved in framing the methodology and implementing the estimations at MS level
• The BCoDE approach is pathogen-based following ECDC`s mandate to survey and collect EU CDs case-base data (TESSy database)
• Models are incidence-based: results express the burden of acute infections and the projected burden due to sequelae

Burden of Communicable Diseases in Europe project (BCoDE)
The BCoDE study will allow assessment of the comparative impact of infectious diseasesObjective: introduce an evidence-based approach
to health description
Objective: provide a tool for planning and prioritisation
Objective: overview of surveillance data availability and qualityObjective: communication of complex information to decision makers

The Toolkit for burden estimation: a service for EU member states
A user-friendly and ready-to-use toolkit for communicable disease burden estimation is being finalized in 2013
EU member states and EEA countries are encouraged to employ the toolkit and undergo their national burden of communicable diseases estimation
