Implementing a delivery record and integrating the partograph in DHIS2

[SamuelJohnson]

Hi el Moujarrade,

Back in 2019 & 2020 we developed guidance on developing a DHIS2 Tracker for PMTCT, which spanned the whole continuum of ANC, delivery and postnatal care. (This was done as part of a MEASURE Evaluation project.) Although we didn’t cover partograms, we did go into quite a lot of technical detail on how to design the tracker programs themselves, and we also piloted the tracker and obtained feedback from users, so you might find some useful ideas there.

Make sure you use the ‘revised’ version of the guidance, which was shaped by feedback from the field. Links to the various resources can be found in this DHIS2 Community post:

Using DHIS 2 Software to Track Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV: Guidance

MEASURE Evaluation has published comprehensive guidance for developing an electronic solution using DHIS 2 to track patients across the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV continuum of care. Our goal is to increase retention of mothers and their infants through the pregnancy and breastfeeding periods, and to improve linkages and referrals across services. This guidance is customized to address the complexities related to the PMTCT continuum of care, but the approaches for p…

Cheers, Sam.
