Návrh systému sledování a vyšetřování případů malárie¶
Úvod¶
Transformace systému dohledu na základní zásah je třetím pilířem Globální technické strategie pro malárii 2016–2030. Jak země postupují směrem k odstranění malárie, cílem dozoru je odhalit všechny případy malárie; vyšetřit každý potvrzený případ malárie; identifikovat pravděpodobné místo infekce, aby bylo možné nasměrovat opatření k přerušení přenosu a zajistit, aby každý zjištěný případ byl okamžitě léčen a monitorován, aby se zabránilo sekundární infekci. Ideální sledovací informační systém pro eliminaci malárie zahrnuje rychlé a úplné hlášení případů, centrální ukládání a správu dat, automatizovanou analýzu dat a přizpůsobené výstupy a zpětnou vazbu, které vedou k včasným a cíleným reakcím. Balíček sledování DHIS2 pro sledování případů malárie a vyšetřování ohnisek je pomůckou pro sledování malárie při snižování zátěže a eliminaci nastavení.
Zahrnuté datové prvky se řídí doporučeními WHO založenými na globálních standardech a normativních pokynech WHO, jak je stanoveno v pokynech organizace a průvodních dokumentech; zejména Malaria Surveillance, Monitoring and Evaluation: A Reference Manual. Shromážděné údaje jsou převedeny do použitelných indikátorů a ovládacích panelů v souladu s prací sady nástrojů pro hodnocení dozoru WHO. Sledovací balíčky podporující oznamování případů, vyšetřování případů, vyšetřování ohnisek a klasifikační pracovní postupy jsou navrženy pro použití ve spojení s agregovanými balíčky DHIS2 pro monitorování programu malárie v nastavení eliminace a snižování zátěže pro posílení kvality dat, analýzy a rozhodování na základě dat.
Přehled návrhu systému¶
Balíček metadat o malárii pro jednotlivá data obsahuje dva sledovací programy, které podporují oznamování případů, vyšetřování případů, vyšetřování ohnisek a klasifikaci, jak je popsáno v dokumentu WHO Sledování, monitorování a vyhodnocování malárie: referenční příručka.
Tyto trasovací programy jsou určeny ke společnému nasazení, aby podporovaly typické pracovní postupy pro:
- Oznámení, vyšetřování a klasifikace případů malárie
- Vyšetřování a klasifikace ohnisek
- Propojení dat případu s ohnisky
V eliminačních podmínkách jsou vyšetřování případů, detekce a fokusní vyšetřování činnosti eliminačního dozoru, které jsou vzájemně propojené a jsou důležité pro spolehlivé určení zdroje infekce a klasifikaci případů a ložisek pro informování vhodné reakce.
I když se standardní národní operační postupy mohou lišit, níže uvedený obrázek ilustruje typické pracovní postupy eliminačního dohledu s příklady oznámení případu do 1 dne, vyšetřování případu do 3 dnů a zaměření vyšetřování do 7 dní na základě čínského přístupu „1–3–7“. V návrhu balíčku DHIS2 podporuje program Oznámení případu malárie, vyšetřování a reakce oznámení případu a vyšetřování v levých dvou panelech diagramu; zatímco program Malárie Foci Investigation podporuje zaměření vyšetřování zobrazené na pravém panelu.

Zdroj: Dozor nad malárií, monitorování a vyhodnocování: Referenční příručka Manua
- MAL CS - Program upozornění na případ malárie, vyšetřování a reakce
Jedná se o program dlouhodobého sledování na základě případu, který podporuje typický pracovní postup pro oznamování potvrzených případů malárie a jejich sledování prostřednictvím vyšetřování případů a zaměření vyšetřování s cílem určit zdroj infekce a klasifikaci případů a ohnisek, aby bylo možné vést účinné reakce.
It allows for cases to be linked through relationships- case to cases (detected reactively) and; a case to a foci registered in the related tracker program “Foci Investigation”. The “Foci Investigation” programme provides details on the actions taken around the index case that triggered a case investigation and the appropriate response measures that were carried out within the focus.
- MAL-FOCI- Program vyšetřování ohnisek malárie
Je registrem všech ohnisek a jejich klasifikačního stavu, stejně jako účinných zásahů prováděných v rámci ohnisek k jejich správě a potenciálu pro reklasifikaci v případě potřeby.
- Ovládací panely
In addition to the metadata, the package also includes seven preconfigured yet editable dashboards. These are populated with indicators from the respective programs. The programs are made to work in tandem and fulfil different aspects of the burden reduction process and malaria elimination.
Program structure¶
Program Summary¶
MAL-CS: Malaria Case Notification, Investigation & Response¶
| Fáze | Popis |
|---|---|
| Zápis | Tato sekce umožňuje zaznamenat informace o případu a jeho přidružené organizační jednotce. Když je pacient zapsán do programu založeného na případu, je také zapsán do organizační jednotky hlásícího zdravotnického zařízení a je mu přiděleno jedinečné ID a shromažďuje obecné dotazy týkající se pacienta, jako je celé jméno, věk, pohlaví, povolání a kontaktní údaje. Tento zápis zároveň slouží jako oznámení o případu, které je nezbytné pro zahájení vyšetřování. |
| Fáze diagnostiky a léčby | Tato fáze zaznamenává všechny informace spojené s diagnózou pacienta, nastavením detekce případu, anamnézou malárie a cestovní anamnézou pacienta, které jsou nezbytné pro předběžnou klasifikaci případu. Tato fáze se provádí na úrovni zdravotnického zařízení a je obvykle dokončena do 24 hodin (1 den) od zjištění. |
| Vyšetřování a klasifikace případu | Tato fáze zahrnuje zaznamenávání informací o prověřovaných členech domácnosti a těch, kteří testují pozitivní zachycení domácnosti, koordinované a zaznamenávání veškerých provedených zásahů vektorové kontroly. Tato fáze se provádí v domácnosti s indexovým případem a je obvykle dokončena do 3 dnů od zjištění vyšetřovacím týmem. |
| Průzkum sousedské domácnosti | Tato fáze umožňuje vyšetřovatelům prozkoumat sousední domácnosti, které se nacházejí v předem určeném okruhu kolem případu indexu. Tato fáze zahrnuje screening na malárii u všech členů domácnosti, zachycení souřadnic sousedních domácností a zaznamenání veškerých provedených zásahů pro kontrolu vektorů... Jedná se o opakovatelnou fázi, která se provádí v každé navštívené sousední domácnosti a je obvykle dokončena během 3 dny detekce případu indexu vyšetřovacím týmem. |
| Výsledek případu | V této fázi, jakmile jsou všechna vyšetření ukončena, je zaznamenána registrace konečné klasifikace případu a také výsledek pacienta. Tato fáze by měla být dokončena ideálně do 3 dnů od zjištění. |
| Rutinní zaměření vyšetřování | V této fázi se shromažďují informace o typu populace v rámci prováděných zásahů zaměřených na vektorovou kontrolu a odezvu. Rutinní zaměření vyšetřování se provádí obvykle do 7 dnů od každého pasivně zjištěného případu. |
MAL-FOCI: Malaria Foci Investigation¶
| Fáze | Popis |
|---|---|
| Zápis | Tato fáze shromažďuje základní informace o ohnisku od data jeho registrace až po název ohniska a je mu přiřazeno jedinečné ID, které vytváří profil ohniska. |
| Stav zaměření, vyšetřování a klasifikace | Jedná se o opakovatelnou fázi, která zachycuje stav ohniska, chování vektorů, stav rezistence na insekticidy a konečnou klasifikaci, kde se zaznamenává stav ohniska a klasifikuje se ohnisko. |
| Odezva Foci | Tato fáze je opakovatelnou fází, která zaznamenává odezvy a zásahy vektorového řízení provedené v tomto ohnisku. |
Pracovní postup¶

Program předpokládá, že všichni registrovaní lidé byli pozitivně testováni na malárii a je rozdělen do pěti neopakovatelných fází, které sledují případ po celou dobu jejich registrace.
Určení uživatelé¶
Program je určen k použití v pečovatelských zařízeních a na úrovni terénu pro účely zadávání dat a indikátory zaplňují řídicí panely, o kterých se předpokládá, že budou používány na národní, okresní a zařízení. V současné době mají uživatelé zadávání údajů přístup ke všem fázím, ale v závislosti na pracovních postupech v dané zemi by mohli být rozděleni podle fáze programu, například tak, že by do fáze vyšetřování byl udělen přístup pouze vyšetřovacímu týmu.
Skupiny uživatelů¶
Skupiny uživatelů byly rozděleny podle použití a funkce. Uživatel může patřit do více než jedné skupiny uživatelů, pokud se jejich funkce překrývají. Kromě toho lze provést další rozdělení pomocí přiřazení specifických skupin uživatelů pro různé fáze. Uživatelům bude také potřeba přiřadit organizační jednotku.
- MAL-CS: Oznámení o případu malárie, vyšetřování a reakce
- MAL-CS- Analýza dat: Má přístup ke všem ovládacím panelům, ale nemůže upravovat metadata ani zadávat nová data
- MAL-CS- Data Entry: Can enter data and create new patient records
- MAL-CS- Metadata Admin: Can modify the metadata
The implementing country should ensure that users have data entry and search rights for their respective Organisation units.
- MAL-FOCI: Foci Investigation & Response
- MAL-FOCI- Data Analysis: Has access to all dashboards but cannot modify metadata or enter new data
- MAL-FOCI- Data Entry: Can enter data and create new patient records
- MAL-FOCI- Metadata Admin: Can modify the metadata
Tracker Configuration¶
MAL-CS: Malaria Case Notification, Investigation & Response - Program configuration¶
The “Malaria case notification, investigation and response” program follows a confirmed malaria case from when they are diagnosed with malaria until a decision on focus response is made. The case is represented by the tracked entity type “Malaria Case”. A case can be enrolled in the programme on more than one occasion.
The program displays the front page list in order to have an at a glance list of cases in the organisation unit, and it requires a minimum of two attributes to search for cases with 50 maximum of TEIs to return in search.
The program has been set as “Audited” meaning that users have access to enrollments in other org units, but that an audit trail of who has accessed which records is kept. For a more secure approach where access is more restricted, see here.
MAL-FOCI: Malaria Foci Investigation - Program configuration¶
The “Malaria Foci Investigation” program registers all the foci which have been identified. A foci is defined by the WHO as “a defined and circumscribed zone situated in an area that is or has been malarious and in which the necessary epidemiological and ecological factors are present for the transmission of malaria”. In practice investigation and detection of cases in the focus are part of the broader focus investigation, while the latter may also include additional investigations to determine causes of transmission. The foci are represented by the tracked entity type “focus area”.
The program displays the front page list in order to have an at a glance list of foci in the org unit, and it requires a minimum of one attribute to search for foci with no maximum of TEIs to return in search.
Foci do not do not have sensitive personal information registered in their enrollment as they are geographical settings, they have been set with access level “open”. This should be evaluated by local data protection legislation.
It currently has no feature point to capture coordinates at enrollment level as these are captured in the investigation stage.
Prefixes¶
Throughout the metadata package, elements are prefixed with either “MAL” an object which os shared with other Malaria programmes, “MAL-CS”; an object which is for the case surveillance program, “MAL-FOCI” for objects which are part of the Malaria Foci programme, and GEN, which are generic for our standard metadata packages.
Unique Identifiers¶
The programs use different unique identifiers to aid with deduplication and with locating a case/foci. These include automatically generated IDs and should be adapted to local needs.
System Case ID - An identifier which is unique for the whole system with an automatically generated pattern in the format RANDOM(XXX######).
Malaria Local Case - ID An identifier which is unique for the whole system. It is currently not automatically generated to allow for it to be based on e.g., a paper record.
Focus ID - An identifier which is unique for the whole system with an automatically generated pattern in the format RANDOM(XXX##) For more information about the text patterns in DHIS2, see here.
TrackedEntityType¶
MAL-CS:Malaria Case Notification, Investigation & Response¶
The Case Surveillance program uses the tracked entity type “Case” instead of “Person” which is what is commonly used in our metadata packages. This means that each time someone becomes infected, they become a case. A case is only allowed to be enrolled once. If someone becomes re-infected with malaria, they will have to be registered as a new case, and there are fields (in the diagnosis and treatment stage) where information about their previous infection can be recorded.
This means that there could be several “case” tracked entities which represent the same individual, and have the same National ID number, and therefore, this attribute should not be unique for the instance. A new “System case ID” is generated for each case.
Depending on implementation needs, an alternative would be to use the tracked entity type “person” and allow for multiple enrollments. In such case, it would require a new case ID for every time an infection is recorded, which results in a new enrollment, and therefore it should not be an attribute in the enrollment of the person and should rather be added as a data element in a program stage.
MAL-FOCI: Foci Investigation & Response¶
The Foci program uses the tracked entity type “Focus Area”, with the mandatory attributes “Focus ID” and “Focus Name”
Vztahy¶
It is recommended to confgure two relationship types to link malaria cases to each other (within the same Tracker program), and to link malaria cases with their focus area (between Tracker programs) using the relationships widget.
MAL - Case-to-case: this relationship type is intended to be a bidirectional relationship that links a malaria case with another malaria case within the same Tracker program. for example, two malaria cases that were identified within the same village and presumed to part of the same outbreak. * From contraint: Tracked entitity instance, using Tracked Entity Type 'Malaria Case' within the Program 'Malaria Case Notification, Investigation and Response' * To constraint: Tracked entity instance, using Tracked Entity Type 'Malaria Case' within the Program 'Malaria Case Notification, Investigation and Response'


MAL - Case-to-focus: this relationship type is intended to be a bidirectional relationship, in order to a malaria case (TEI in one tracker program) with a malaric focus (TEI in a separate tracker program). Case to focus allows the user to connect a case with an existing or new foci. Likewise, it allows for a foci to be linked with a reported case. * From contraint: Tracked entity instance, using Tracked Entity Type 'Malaria Case' within the Program 'Malaria Case Notification, Investigation and Response' * To constraint: Tracked entity instance, using Tracked Entity Type 'Focus area' within the Program 'Malaria Foci Investigation'


The information shown in the relationship widget can be changed by adding the attributes to the tracked entity type and marking the box “show in list”.

In the foci enrollment there are only four attributes in addition to the date of registration. It has a polygon attribute which has been configured from the Tracked Entity Type and which allows it to capture the perimeter of a focus. Note that this is not configured as a program feature, because there is no support for representing polygon features in the output maps.

- Focus Status investigation and classification stage
This is a repeatable stage where the details of the focus investigation are recorded. It has five sections and following the investigation the focus should be classified Subsequent stages will include previous classification and any interventions that might have been undertaken.
The first section is hidden through programme rules if there have not been any interventions or investigations previously. If there have been interventions, then the section is displayed and most of these data elements are automatically completed based on the values from their other stages.
It has a point feature which allows you to record coordinates as a point on the map to mark the location of the focus.

Program rules¶
Program rules have been configured to hide data elements/sections based on workflow logic during data entry, as well as to assign values to other data elements or event dates. Due to limitations in calculating indicators based on data from multiple events, some program rules have been used to move data into data elements that are part of “hidden sections" throughout the program. When modifying the package, extra care should be taken that the data elements in these hidden sections are being populated correctly. This can be tested directly in Tracker by removing the program rules which hide the sections. The rules for this are all called “Hide Section for indicator purposes”.

Ovládací panely¶
The package includes seven dashboards, 6 of them are based exclusively on indicators from MAL-CS, the remaining one has a combination of Indicators from MAL-CS and MAL-FOCI. A number has been added to their name to keep them in a logical order and they are prefixed with the respective programme.
MAL-CS- 01 Trends¶

MAL-CS-02 Epidemiology¶

MAL-CS-03 Treatment and Diagnostic¶

MAL-CS-04 Case Notification & Investigation¶

MAL-CS-05- Case Classification¶

MAL-CS-06- Geolocation¶

Foci polygons¶
The Foci Investigation and Response programme allows for polygons to be captured instead of points. Currently these are not included as map objects in the programmes by default, but they can be added as a tracked entity layer.

MAL-FOCI¶

Indicators and Program Indicators¶
The indicators in this package have been built based on specifications from guiding documents from the WHO.
Program indicators are used most frequently in this package (e.g. counting events or enrollments filtered by a condition). Due to limitations in calculating indicators based on data from multiple events, some program rules have been used to move data into data elements that are part of “hidden sections" throughout the program. When modifying the package, extra care should be taken that the data elements in these hidden sections are being populated correctly. This can be tested directly in Tracker by removing the program rules which hide the sections. The rules for this are all called “Hide Section for indicator purposes”.
Indicators are used when there is a numerator and denominator. In this package, indicators typically contain program indicator in the numerator and denominator in order to calculate values such as % of cases investigated, % of cases notified on time, % of cases by risk group, etc.
Note: Indicators that calculate a percentage of cases based on detection vs. outcome can show a result exceeding 100%, this results from cases in which the outcome happens in the following period. In particular for confirmed cases classified, the percentage can be more than 100% since the confirmation comes from diagnosis and treatment and the classification from the outcome, in a report the outcome could be in a different period.
Android compatibility¶
The program as it stands is fully compatible with Android. When implementing with Android, especially if the program is modified, it is important to be familiar with the Android implementation guide
