Adverse Event Module Details

Key Features of the Adverse Event Module​

1: Adverse Event Form

  • The module allows vaccinators to log any adverse events that occur post-vaccination.

  • The system checks whether the child/woman has already been registered.

2: Patient Search & Identification

The vaccinator can search for a child/woman by:

  • Scanning or entering a 14-digit code (Child/Woman ID).

  • If the child/woman is found, their data is fetched from the server.

  • If not found, an error message is displayed.

3: Patient Information Retrieval

Once identified, the system fetches and displays:

  • Basic Information: Name, Guardian Name, CNIC, Gender, DOB, Contact Details, Address, etc.

  • Recent Vaccination Data: Most recent vaccination details, including vaccine name and date of administration.

4: Checking for Previous Adverse Events

  • If an adverse event for the same vaccine group already exists, the Clinical Info Tab is locked, preventing duplicate entries.

  • If no previous adverse event exists, the Clinical Info Tab is unlocked for data entry.

5: Clinical Info Tab - Adverse Event Documentation

The vaccinator enters details of the adverse event under:

  • Symptoms: Includes duration, severity, hospitalization details, and treatment.
  • Outcome: Selects the outcome, including whether it was fatal.
  • Vaccination Info: Fetches vaccine details (batch number, expiry date, etc.) and allows manual entry if needed.

6: Form Validation & Submission

  • The system validates the form for missing or incorrect fields.
  • If errors exist, an error message prompts corrections.
  • If valid, the form is saved and uploaded via the Adverse Event API.

7: Form Upload Process

  • Once validated, the form is uploaded to the server.
  • If successful, a confirmation message is displayed.
