Apa itu iSIKHNAS?

Sistem Informasi Kesehatan Hewan Nasional terpadu

iSIKHNAS adalah sistem informasi kesehatan hewan Indonesia yang baru. Sistem ini menggunakan teknologi sehari-hari dalam cara yang sederhana namun cerdas untuk mengumpulkan data dari lapangan dan dengan segera menyediakannya bagi para pemangku kepentingan dalam bentuk yang bermakna dan dapat segera dimanfaatkan.

Selain itu, iSIKHNAS akan memadukan beberapa sistem pengelolaan informasi, guna membuat berbagai sistem tersebut lebih efisien dan terjangkau bagi lebih banyak pengguna. Integrasi berbagai sistem ini akan membuat data pada sistem tersebut menjadi jauh lebih kuat dan memberikan dukungan yang lebih mantap bagi kerja para pengambil keputusan di berbagai tingkatan.

Di Indonesia, telah ada beberapa sistem yang mengelola data untuk berbagai tujuan terpisah, misalnya InfoLab untuk data laboratorium dan SIKHNAS awal untuk laporan penyakit dari lapangan. Beragam sistem ini belumlah prima karena tak saling terhubung. iSIKHNAS memadukan semua sistem ini sehingga data di dalamnya bisa dikelola secara lebih efisien dan dibagi oleh semua pemangku kepentingan. Data tersebut akan disediakan bagi para pengguna yang telah diberi kewenangan untuk memperoleh data, melalui berbagai cara misalnya melalui situs web iSIKHNAS atau dalam bentuk laporan, diagram, lembar kerja, dan peta yang dibuat oleh sistem dan dikirimkan melalui e-mail atau SMS kepada staf yang membutuhkannya.

Dengan menggunakan iSIKHNAS, kita akan dapat menautkan data submisi laboratorium dengan laporan penyakit, peta dengan data lalu-lintas atau laporan wabah, data pemotongan dengan data produksi dan populasi, dan semua ini dilakukan secara mulus dan otomatis. Hal ini sangatlah membantu para pengambil kebijakan di berbagai tingkat, serta baik juga bagi semua orang yang bekerja dalam bidang kesehatan hewan.

Mengapa kita membutuhkan sistem baru?

The old paper-based systems are slow and inefficient and meant that much of the information collected in the field is out of date by the time it is received. Information is often sent “up” and takes a very long time to come back “down” again. By the time it does, the data had been changed and squeezed into formats that aren’t always useful.

iSIKHNAS will change all this by its use of the SMS messages from mobile phones in the field and simplified spread sheets from the offices to quickly draw data in from as close to its origin as possible and make it available for viewing and analysis in user friendly ways to those who need it. Clever, automated systems will ensure accurate data entry, automated reports, ease of access to data, programmed routine analyses and, very importantly, alert systems for staff who need to respond to disease reports.

iSIKHNAS is not just about improved management of data. Its success is very much reliant on the people who work at the grassroots throughout rural Indonesia. The collective contribution of all staff and their provision of improved services to livestock owners is what will ultimately make Indonesia’s animal health system stronger. Good relationships, improved communication and stronger cooperation lies at the heart of the improvements iSIKHNAS will bring to the animal health sector in the next few years.

iSIKHNAS is being designed to disrupt as little as possible the routine work of staff, but some training in the use of the system will of course be necessary. Additional training is also being developed to reinforce staff with additional skills in the areas of Field Epidemiology, Surveillance and Data Management and Analysis amongst others. These flexible, targeted courses will help staff to work with more confidence and efficiency and will bring about greater precision to decision makers and rewards to their communities.

Overview

Planned components

• Field disease reporting (including current SIKHNAS reports)
• Priority disease investigation, response and follow-up (including Rapid Response Unit PDSR reporting)
• Laboratory data (including InfoLab)
• Other field activities (including vaccination, active surveillance, treatments, health certificates)
• Abattoir data collection
• Drug registration
• Linking with existing Quarantine and Pusdatin databases
• Human resource and training management
• Artificial Insemination

Timing for development

• Phased implementation of database, followed by progressive roll out across Indonesia. Target dates for commencing training of staff
• Phase 1: Field disease reporting and other field activities: Q4 2013
• Phase 2: Laboratory systems: Q1 2014
• Phase 3: Priority disease response: Q2 2014
• Phase 4: Interoperability with Quarantine and Pusdatin: Q3 2014
• Phase 5: Human resource management: Q4 2014
• Other components
• Progressively implemented by Indonesian system administrators

What are the benefits of iSIKHNAS?

For the users in the field

• Fast, easy data entry, direct from the source
• Immediate response for important problems
• Lower data entry burden for everyone
• Automatic data checking
• Return messages confirming report details
• Sustainable, integrated system using everyday technology
• Regular reports generated automatically
• More time for important work and less paperwork

For all users

• Provides service and benefit to all users
• Replaces a slow, paper-based system
• Stronger support for decision makers
• Immediate access to the data at all levels
• User-friendly, flexible data sharing service
• Automatic analyses for different routine purposes
• Real time access to data in different formats

And all this ...

• Allows us to help farmers better.
• Helps to reduce risks to rural communities and the livestock sector.

Who is involved?

At first,

• Dinas veterinarians and para-vets
• Other technical staff
• Village reporters, pelapor desa (‘pelsa’)
• Abattoirs and slaughter houses

But very soon the system will include other people such as

• Laboratory staff
• Meat inspectors
• Staff working in quarantine
• Inseminators
• Vaccinators
• Some human health staff
• As well as many farmers!!

Security

Make sure you know who to contact for help with the system. Save the name, phone number and email address of your local iSIKHNAS coordinator as a contact in your phone.

It is important to remember that your phone is an important part of your work now and so you should protect your phone more carefully.

Protect it.

Keep it with you at all times.

Keep it properly charged.

Register a new phone number with iSIKHNAS if you lose or change your phone.

Help for users

There are different ways to learn about how to use the system and get help or support for problems or questions.

Training

Every new user should receive some training on the system and how it operates. The training might be quite short and simple if, for example, you only every need to view data, or if you only send in one type of report. For certain key users, such as dinas para-vets, the training will be longer and will involve multiple message types, code lists and various operational issues which will affect the routine workflow.

In order to complement the iSIKHNAS system several other training courses will be developed to assist staff in other aspects of their work.

Staff will be offered training in

• Field Epidemiology
• Surveillance
• Budget Advocacy
• Epidemiological Data Analysis
• GIS for Animal Health

Other sources of help

• Q message sent to iSIKHNAS
• User manual
• Quick reference cards
• Code lists
• iSIKHNAS Website
• Local iSIKHNAS coordinator
• iSIKHNAS “ Champions”

Quick reference cards are a very useful tool to keep handy at all times. These cards will help you to send error free messages and make sure you are using the correct codes.

Remember!!

iSIKHNAS automatically checks every message

• If it is correct,

it sends a response to the user AND starts to manage, organise and analyse the information and make it available in the iSIKHNAS system.

• If it is not correct,

it warns the user and advises the user how to correct the mistake and send again.

This means that the data in iSIKHNAS will always be clean and correct.
