Proper Citation: CELL- PREVEN Project (RRID:SCR_000779)
Description: An interactive computer system that utilizes cell phones and the Internet to collect real-time data about transmission rates of STDs, such as vaginosis among female sex workers, in Peru. This is tracked through the rates of precriptions of Metronidazole, an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections of the vagina, stomach, skin, joints, and respiratory tract. Data from three communities is stored in an online database that can be accessed over secure Internet connection. This project has demonstrated that it is feasible to develop a public-health-surveillance system based on cell phones to collect data in real-time in Peru.
