Ring Surveys and House to House Surveys
House to House surveys and Ring Surveys are special surveys that are used in leprosy surveillance. They are conducted by identifying the hot spots of leprosy and by GIS Mapping.
Ring Surveys are conducted where there is a cluster of population around an index leprosy case within the radius of 100m. House to House surveys are conducted by identifying the hotspots with the help of Survey Volunteers. The suspected patients are referred to the Dermatology clinics.
