Relationships with Other Tables

Disease Surveillance

The relationship with the reg_by_service table establishes organizational and geographic continuity. The population_projection table provides denominator data for calculating disease incidence rates. Findings from disease surveillance can inform clinical patterns observed in the gm (General Medical) consultations table.
