Spring Quarter 2014 Timeline

More accurate and accessible reports on vaccine stock in-ventories and timely noti�cations of critical equipment failures are needed to help health workers e�ectively dis-tribute vaccines across health centers. Our goal is to design a system that will allow for fast, easy reliable and accurate reporting in Laos, and generalize it to be usable by other countries.

Related WorkWe talked to two UW graduate students, Trevor Perrier and Fahad Pervaiz, who are currently supporting the prototype system in Laos. Other work at PATH has been focused on creating a data model that can be used in DHIS2 to record cold chain information. This model will be a necessary link between the SMS Interchange Server being developed and a deployment country’s DHIS2 database.
