Background
Understanding complexity in healthcare has the potential to reduce decision and treatment uncertainty. Therefore, identifying both patient and task complexity may offer better task allocation and design recommendation for next-generation health information technology system design.
Objective
To identify specific complexity-contributing factors in the infectious disease domain and the relationship with the complexity perceived by clinicians.
Method
We observed and audio recorded clinical rounds of three infectious disease teams. Thirty cases were observed for a period of four consecutive days. Transcripts were coded based on clinical complexity-contributing factors from the clinical complexity model. Ratings of complexity on day 1 for …

Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) continue to pose a global threat. Waterfowl are the main reservoir and are responsible for the spillover of AIVs to other hosts. This study was conducted as part of routine surveillance activities in Bangladesh and it reports on the serological and molecular detection of H5N1 AIV subtype. A total of 2169 cloacal and 2191 oropharyngeal swabs as well as 1725 sera samples were collected from live birds including duck and chicken in different locations in Bangladesh between the years of 2013 and 2014. Samples were tested using virus isolation, serological tests and molecular methods of RT-PCR. …
