Quality and Use of Recording Fields in Home-Based Records Collected through a Missed Opportunities for Vaccination Assessment in Mozambique, 2017
Introduction: More than 163 countries use a form of home-based record which is a health document used to record the history of health services received by an individual. These records provide health workers with a standardized format to record receipt of these health services, such as vaccination history and enable them to make informed decisions about vaccine eligibility. However, implementation challenges, such as incorrect use of home-based records by health workers, persist and recent findings from a Missed Opportunities for Vaccination (MOV) assessment in Mozambique indicate poor vaccination recording practices as a challenge.
Methods: This descriptive, secondary analysis of home-based record photos collected through a MOV assessment in Mozambique in 2017 aims to document the quality and use of selected recording fields in the home-based records. A data extraction form with 25 variables was generated in excel to capture information about the type of home-based record in the photo, the physical quality and availability and use of fields to record a child’s vaccination history, growth monitoring, vitamin A for the child, deworming, and vitamin A for the mother.
