Hi,
My name is Fabien, i’m working in Laos to setup DHIS2 for an NGO.
We would like to monitor few things with DHIS2, but right now i’m focus on one thing, the child growth.
is there a sample configuration data to monitor child growth in DHIS2 ? with indicators like “Length/height-for-age”, “Weight-for-age” or “Weight-for-length/height” ?
Also, is there is a plugin or an add-on, to see the results based on WHO standards (Standards) ?
For this we are using a custom mobile and web app. We are currently using WHO reference values with standard deviations. There is a tracker longitudinal charting web app done by our team sometime back. need to update that in app store.
Hi Fabien,
the one we are using is based on DHIS2 of course. But this was design some time back and the we came up with a custom mobile app to display the longitudinal charting. There is a web app produced by one of our team members on longitudinal charting for the purpose of configuring WHO reference values and for displaying the charts.
Thanks for sharing, as Karoline shared UiO/HISP groups are gathering requirements for a phased implementation of Nutrition and Child growth monitoring tracker for MoHw Botswana mostly to use the new dhis2 android app.
The first phase combines Nutrition monitoring and EPI services all to be captured using dhis2 android (tablets)
Most of the functionality apart from z-scores are support for child registry and routine monitoring. The plan is to have the z-score incorporated in the core dhis2.
I would be very interested to see your configuration of DHIS2 for the Child growth monitoring program, and how you are working concretely.
Do you think it would be possible to get an access of your DHIS2 instance to see your setup. (we can see detail by pm)
About the z-score, it’s exactly what we are looking for too, i mean incorporated in the core of DHIS2.
What is you plan ? did you fork the repository and developping by yourself ?
Palestine is also interested and needed the Child Growth chart as part of Family Medicine Project. Currently we are utilizing the DHIS2 for several national scale implementation and hopefully we can see the growth chart on DHIS2 …
