Description:The Laboratory-based Enteric Disease Surveillance (LEDS) system contributes to the understanding of human salmonellosis in the United States by collecting reports of infections from state and regional public health laboratories. Reporting to LEDS is voluntary; the number of laboratories submitting reports varies somewhat from year to year, although almost all laboratories report every year. Diagnosing Salmonella infections based on results from culture-independent diagnostic tests (CIDTs) has become more common in recent years (1). Cases confirmed only by CIDT provide no serotype information and are listed in the “Unknown serotype” category. Occasionally, more than one isolate is reported from a single episode of infection in a person; this report includes only one isolate of a given Salmonella serotype per person within a 30-day period.
Data in this report are current as of February 28, 2018.
