DHIS 2 Immunisation Analysis App

The WHO digital health data toolkit for DHIS2 consists of metadata and tools to facilitate the dissemination of health data standards at global scale. The toolkit is an extension of the WHO's toolkit for strengthening routine health information systems.

The Immunisation configuration package for aggregate reporting contains a single data set collected monthly, and the purpose is reporting of immunisation activities (including outreach activities), adverse events following immunisation, stock and cold chain.

In addition, there are other modules such as the Bottleneck Analysis (BNA), supporting the analysis of determinants of coverage which enables targeting of interventions to where they are most needed. It allows for real-time monitoring of EPI performance with high granularity, visualization in dashboards facilitates communication of the findings. There is a manual for the use of the application in DHIS2 when conducting a BNA.

Note that the app requires user input, but if it is used at the national level then it can provide quantitative data on a wide range of indicators related to AEFI, vaccine coverage and dropout. Might not be readly available in countries due to the lack of digitalization of EPI indicator data in service delivery data.
