DESIGN OF SCREENING FOR CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROID REGISTRATION AND REPORTING APPLICATION CASE STUDY: M. DJAMIL HOSPITAL

Abstract

The Congenital Hypothyroid Screening Laboratory of M. Djamil Hospital has problems in recording and reporting SHK manually which causes the risk of delays in the administrative process, specimen damage, errors in specimen recording and unintentional data changes. A mixed method study has been conducted with the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation (ADDIE) model approach on the SHK registration and reporting system that is currently running with a computerized system. The study began with a qualitative study that formulated a software needs analysis and continued with quantitative research to determine the impact of computerization on the speed of registration and reporting. The average registration and reporting process using the application is 1 minute 40 seconds, which is 6.9 times faster than the manual process, which is 11 minutes 35 seconds. SHK data monitoring can be carried out directly by the City/District and Provincial Health Offices; and reduces the risk of data changes. The use of the SHK registration and reporting application has restored the role of health facilities in preparing SHK specimen data and at the same time freed the SHK laboratory from the task of recording specimen data and returning to its role as a SHK examiner.
