摘要

药品供应链的有效管理对于确保公共卫生机构基本药品和用品的供应至关重要。本研究旨在确定电子物流管理信息系统(e-LMIS)在公共卫生机构中的使用情况及其对药品供应链的影响。研究采用了混合方法,结合了定量和定性数据收集方法。研究对象包括辛吉达区 35 家公共医疗机构的 106 名医疗服务提供者。采用定性方法对六名关键信息提供者进行了访谈。在 106 名参与者中,62.3% 的人表示他们在某种程度上有能力使用电子医疗管理信息系统。在深入访谈中,受访者强调了该系统在跟踪库存水平、采购和管理订单方面的实用性。受访者提到,人员短缺和缺乏定制培训是妨碍药品供应管理效率的主要挑战。这项研究强调了电子管理信息系统对药品供应链各个方面的积极影响,包括及时提交订单和加强库存管理。持续的管理支持和定期使用 e-LMIS 系统对于培养和保持医疗服务提供者的能力至关重要,从而优化药品供应链并最终改善医疗服务的提供。

Electronic Logistic Management Information System in Public Health Facilities and Its Implications for the Medicine Supply Chain in Singida District Council, Tanzania.

The effective management of the medicine supply chain is crucial for ensuring the availability of essential medicines and supplies in public health facilities. This study aimed to determine the utilization of the electronic logistic management information system (e-LMIS) in public health facilities and its implications for the medicine supply chain. A mixed methods approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods, was used. The study included 106 healthcare providers from 35 public health facilities in Singida District. Six key informants were interviewed using a qualitative method. Of the 106 participants, 62.3% said they were somehow competent in e-LMIS utilization. In in-depth interviews, respondents underscored the system's utility for tracking stock levels, procurements, and managing orders. Staff shortages and a lack of customized training were mentioned as major challenges hindering efficiency in managing drug supplies. This study highlighted the positive impact of e-LMIS on various aspects of the medicine supply chain, including the timely submission of orders and enhanced inventory management. Sustained management support and the regular utilization of the e-LMIS system are crucial for building and maintaining competence among healthcare providers, thereby optimizing the medicine supply chain and ultimately improving healthcare delivery.
