Immunization 1

 

The characters in the child immunization scenario are:

 

a village elder who uses an mHealth application (mHealth app) to record basic information about the birth of a new baby in the village the mum, who has just delivered a new baby during an at-home birth in her village the baby who will be issued an immunization card with a barcode ID sticker on it an immunization nurse who works at a rural clinic that tracks vaccinations using an “engineered” paper form that is preprinted with optical mark recognition (OMR) data capture areas an immunization nurse at an urban immunization clinic that is able to use the web-based online immunization registry application (GIIS) to track immunization events a District Immunization & Vaccination Officer, DIVO, who leverages a form scanning application (Form Scanner) and an online immunization registry application (GIIS) to track immunization events, vaccine inventory, and the supply chain transactions needed to ensure vaccine stocks are maintained at all the clinics in the district an MOH data analyst who uses a national health management information system (DHIS2) to track immunization programme metrics and indicators.


The immunization story progresses in 5 acts;


Part 1, a pregnant mum gives birth to her baby boy during an at-home delivery in her village. The next day, a designated elder (a village “officer”) in the woman’s village uses his mobile phone to send an SMS message to an MOH-supported application. The message records that a male child has been born in his village the previous night. The elder receives an ID code as an SMS reply and he writes down and gives this code to the child’s mum with a reminder that she needs to take the baby for its immunizations.


Part 2 of the story, the mum brings her 6-week old baby to the local rural immunization clinic. At the clinic, the mum is given the child’s immunization card. Specific demographic details (including the SMS code from the elder, if the mum has it) are captured for the mum and the child, and these are hand-written on a paper form. A barcode sticker is placed at the top of the immunization card indicating the child’s unique ID#. An identical sticker is placed on the paper form beside the baby’s demographic information. The child is weighed and given his 6-week vaccinations. These details are recorded on the paper form beside his barcode sticker and onto his immunization card, which his mum keeps.


Part 3 of the story takes place at the DIVO’s office. It is month-end, and the nurse from the rural clinic has brought the hand-entered forms and the filled-in scannable forms to the DIVO for data entry into the online immunization registry (GIIS). For each newborn baby, the information is hand-entered into GIIS. For babies who are already in the database, their immunization transactions are scanned from the filled-in “OMR” forms. [NOTE: Transactions entered into the immunization registry (GIIS) are batch-updated to the HIE (see endnote).] After the data entry and scanning is completed, the DIVO prints a new set of scannable forms for the nurse to take back to
