COVID-19 Reporting Indicators
(identified by Partners In Health)
COVID-19 Indicator:
COVID-19 Indicator |
---|
Cases with respiratory symptoms are screened at the health facility |
Cases with Acute Respiratory Infection (IRA) are screened at health facility |
Cases suspected of COVID-19 are identified at the facility and registered as suspected cases |
For Suspected Cases, they go through a Screening workflow as part of the registration process. |
Suspected cases are put into quarantine at the facility |
Suspected cases receive laboratory testing. |
Cases are Confirmed |
Confirmed Cases are put in Isolation at the health facility |
Patients who need advanced treatment are put into isolation in the UMI (Infectious Disease Unit) |
Ambulance Transfer Patients are placed directly in isolation in the UMI. |
Confirmed Cases are asked to give a list of their contacts |
Contacts are identified by CHW and placed in quarantine at a facility |
Contacts are identified by CHW and placed in quarantine at home |
Lab tests are performed |
Lab tests in progress |
Lab Results: PCR pos |
Lab Results: PCR neg |
Lab Results; Rapid Test Pos |
Lab Results: Rapid Test Pos |
Patients Currently hospitalized in the UMI |
Patients who get better and exit the UMI |
Patients who die while in UMI |
Patients who leave UMI without authorization |
Patients might transfer from one UMI to another (HSN to HUM) |
Patients who get better are discharged from regular isolation to go home |
Patients who go home are followed up by CHW to make sure that they are OK |
After a certain number of days, they are given a final outcome. Cured, Readmitted to Hospital, Lost, Died. |
Inpatient Care:
PIH is currently working towards creating dashboard with the following indicators to track inpatient care at facilities:
Inpatient Indicator | How this helps |
---|---|
Current and trend in occupancy of beds in the COVID-19 UMI ward. | Monitoring capacity to care for the volume of patients and flagging need for either setting up additional facilities or planning to return ICU beds to other types of patients. |
Trend in # screening PCR tests positive | Monitoring the overall trend of the pandemic - whether to plan ahead and allocate resources to handle more cases, hold steady, or prepare to transition resources back to other types of care. |
Proportion of patients with comorbidities that will affect their care | Determine reasons for severity and the types of expertise and supportive care needed. |
Symptoms of confirmed cases, histogram | Feed back to screening process to prioritize people with matching symptom profiles. |
Current and trend of patients on oxygen | Compare to oxygen supply chain to look for risk of running short or having overstock. |
Hospital staff testing positive, trend | To determine if facility has the staff capacity to manage the care needs |
Patient outcomes, by type over time | assessing the success of care |
