  5. Pharmacovigilance Activities including Surveillance of Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI) Indicators results

  6. Strengths The system has significantly improved since the last NRA assessment in 2008. PMS system well established system AEFI are notifiable under the national disease surveillance system Expertise available at central, provincial and regional levels The country has a good investigation capacity to address vaccine safety and performance. Regular meetings at provincial and regional levels are conducted to review and analyze AEFI reports with good interactions with central level which review all cases. Information feedback is provided through the MOPH internet and periodic reports are prepared by BOE/AEFI. The system capture serious and non-serious AEFI throughout the National Immunization program Regular training of staff at every levels.

  7. Areas for improvement QMS implemented in NRA but not fully extended to BOE to cover detection, reporting and detailed analysis including feed back. Analysis methodology e.g.: analysis by rates, by dose of vaccines, by product,… To address under-reporting there are needs to standardized selected non-serious AEFI by applying simplified Brighton case definition. Further improvement of the system requires increased HR capacity at central level. Need to be more actively engaged in international/regional PMS activities to foster capacity building and keep abreast of latest regulatory requirements. E.g participation in NRA assessment, facilitating training organized by WHO in other countries
