Field Disease Reporting and Case Management

Field disease reporting is central to Indonesia's new animal health information system, iSIKHNAS where village reporters and district field veterinary staff (Dinas) report cases of disease by sending simple coded messages from their mobile phones. Reports can either be for General Signs (Tanda Umum) using the U SMS message format or reports of suspected priority diseases using the P message - Priority Syndrome report (Sindrom Prioritas). The messages sent from the field ensure that the relevant veterinary staff are alerted and the data is also immediately included in the available for analysis by decision makers at every level.

Village reporters (Pelsa) assist in this vital reporting role and it is important for Dinas staff to be fully aware of the role and responsibilities and appreciate the work of the Pelsa in their area.

Field disease reports: Pelsa

Pelsa are the eyes and ears of the veterinary services and provide an important link between the community and animal health services. Dinas staff should liaise closely with pelsa, encourage their contribution and nurture the relationship. They should assist them when they need help and offer advice which will help them to offer a good service to their fellow farmers.

Pelsa are being recruited and trained in recognising and reporting general signs of disease as well as priority syndromes. They use a simpler version of the U and P messages which does not require the differential diagnosis required of Dinas staff. When Pelsa report disease from the field their message to iSIKHNAS prompts an automatic alert to the Dinas staff with responsibility for that area. Dinas staff must respond efficiently to these reports and then report the response (telephone call or visit) to iSIKHNAS.

Routine general signs report

• Use CKT [name of sign] to look up a general sign codes.

• Use Kode SP to look up species codes.

• Use CKL [name of location] to look up the location code for a village.

Priority Syndrome report

P [syndrome] [species] [number of animals] {location}

• Use Kode SIN to look up a syndrome code

• Use Kode SP to look up species codes.

• Use CKL [name of location] to look up the location code for a village.
