Definition – the health information system

can be defined as ‘ a mechanism for the
collection, processing, analysis and
transmission of information required for
organizing and operating health services
and also for research and training’

2. 3min To describe the Objective of health information system

objective  To provide reliable, relevant, up to
date , adequate, timely and
reasonably complete information for
health managers at all levels ( i.e
centre, intermediate and local )
 To share technical and scientific
information by all health personnel
participating in the health services of
the country.
 To provide at periodic intervals the
data will show the the general
performance of the health services.
 To assist planner in studying their

 The system should be population

oriented.

functional and operational terms (eg.
Episodes of illness, treatment
regimens, laboratory tests)

information briefly and imaginatively
(e.g. tables, charts, percentages)

6. 10.min To describe the Sources of health information lecture Flash card Students are able
sources of to know what the
health 1. census – a sensus defined by the united sources of health
information nations as the total process of collecting, information.
compiling and publishing demographic,
economic and social data pertaining at a
specified time or times to all persons in the
country or delimited territory. Census is a
massive undertaking to contact every
member of the population in a given time
and collect a variety of information. The first
regular census in india was taken in 1881 ,
and thereafter it took place at every 10 year
intervals.

2. registration of vitals events

Registration of vital events (e.g. birth and
death) keeps a continuous check on
demographic changes. If registration of vital
events is complete and accurate, it can
serve as r reliable source of health
information.
The united nations defines a vital events
registration system as including legal
registration, statistical recording of the
occurrence of and the collection ,
compilation, presentation, analysis and
distribution of statistics pertaining to vital
events.ie liv birth, death, fetal death,
marriage, divorce, adaptations, legal
limitations, recognitions, annulments and
legal seprations.
Lay reporting – lay reporting is defined as
collection of infoemation , its use and its
transmission to other levels of the health
systems by non professional health workers
like village health guides to record birth and
death in the community.

3. sample registration system (SRS)

The SRS was initiated in mid 1960 to
provide reliable estimate of birth and death
rates at the national and state levels. SRS
as a dual record system , consisting of
continuous enumeration of births and death
by enumerator and an investigator
supervisor. This system is more reliable for
information on birth and death rates age
specific fertility rates infant and adult
mortality etc.

4. notification of diseases
The primary purpose of notification is to
effect prevention and control of the disease.
Notification is also a valuable sources of
morbidity data i.e. the incidence and
distribution of certain specified diseases
vary from country to country and also within
the same country between the status and
between the urban and rural areas.
At the international level the disese like
cholera, plague, yellow fever , relapsing
fever , polio , influenza , malaria and rabies
are modifiable to WHO .
The limitation of notification
1. it covers only a small part of the sickness
in the community
2. it suffers from under reporting.
3. many cases especially atypical and sub
clinical caes escape notification due to non
recognition e.g rubella, non paralytic polio
etc.

5. hospital records
In India where registration of vital events is
defective and notification of infectious
disease is extremely inadequate, hospital
data constitute a basic and primary source
of information about disease

6. disease registers
A register requires that a permanent record
established , that the cases be followed up,
and the basic statistical tabulation be
prepared both on frequency and on
survivals morbidity register exists only for
certain disease such as stroke, myocardial
infarction, cancer blindness, and congenital
defects.
These registration are valuable of
information of the duration of the illness,
case fatality and survival.

7. record linkage
The term record linkage is used to describe
the process of bringing together records
relating to one individual or to family, the
records originating in different times or
places. The term medical record linkage
implies the assembly and maintenance for
each individual in a population,of a file of
the mare important records relating to his
health.
The events commonly recorded are birth,
marriage, death, hospital admission, and
discharge.
8. epidemiological surveillance
In many country where particular disease
are endemic special control eradication
programmes have been instituted. For
example national disease control
programme against malaria. Tuberculosis,
leprosy etc.

9. other health service records

These are hospital out patient department,
primary health centers and sub centers,
polyclinics, private practitioners, mother and
child health centres, school health record,
diabetic and hypertensive clinics etc. e.g.
record in maternal a child health centres
provide information about birth weight ,
height , arm circumference, immunization ,
disease specific mortality and morbidity.

10. environment health data

Health statistics provide data on various
aspects of air , water, and noise pollution
harmful food additives, industrial toxicants,
inadequate waste disposal and other
aspects of combination of population
explosion with increased production and
consumption of material goods.
Environmental data is helpful in the
identification and quantification of factor
causative of disease.

11. health and manpower statistics

This information relates to the number of

physicians( by age ,sex, specially, and
place of work,) dentist , nurse, medical
technician etc.There records are maintained
by the state medical/ dental/ nursing
council/ and the decorates of medical
education.

Population serveys
The term health survey is used for surveys
relating to any aspects of health morbidity,
mortality, nutritional status etc.
The following types of survey are includes
under health survey
 Surveys for evaluating the health
status of a population that is
community diagnosis of problems of
health and disease.
 Survey for investigation of factors
affecting health and disease e.g.
environment occupation, income,
circumstances associated with the
onset of illness etc.
 Survey relating to administration of
health services e.g. use of health
services, expenditure of health,
evaluation of population, health
needs and unmet needs.
13. other routine statistics related to
health
Demographic: in addition to routine census
data, statistics on other demographic
phenomena as population density,
movement and education level.
Economic: consumption of consumer goods
like tobacco, dietary fats, sales of drugs,
non-employment data.
Social security schemes: medical insurance
schemes make it possible to study the
occurrences of illness in the insured
population.
 14. non- quantifiable information
Health planners require this information e.g.
information on the health policies, health
legislation, public attitudes, programs costs,
procedures and technology. There should
proper storage, processing and
dissemination.

Conclusion –
 The health information system is the collection, processing, analysis and transmission of information required for organizing
and operating health services and also for research and training.
