Alberta Wastewater

Alberta Wastewater

Wastewater samples are collected, processed and reported by teams at the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary using different protocols. This means that direct comparisons between sites using different protocols are not possible. Comparing sites is also problematic because different communities have different proportions of residential and industrial water use contributing to their municipal wastewater. The most important signals to compare are within a given community by following trends over time.

Hypertension Identification

Hypertension Identification

The prevalence of hypertension is often underestimated. When a patient is discharged from a hospital, their conditions are coded using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). Due to time constraints, and the fact that hypertension may not be the cause of the hospital visit, coding of hypertension is often omitted. This can lead to issues for surveillance and policy planning.

After a patient has been discharged, the most reliable way to determine whether they have hypertension is to have a trained clinician manually go through the documents in the patient chart. However, this is expensive and time-consuming. Electronic medical records (EMRs) provide all of the information necessary to identify hypertension. It is difficult to obtain the necessary information though, as most documents are in free-text form.
