Laboratory Data Timeliness and Completeness Improves Following Implementation of an Electronic Laboratory Information System in Cote d'Ivoire: Quasi-Experimental Study on 21 Clinical Laboratories From 2014 to 2020.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Ministry of Health in Côte d'Ivoire and the International Training and Education Center for Health at the University of Washington, funded by the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, have been collaborating to develop and implement the Open-Source Enterprise-Level Laboratory Information System (OpenELIS). The system is designed to improve HIV-related laboratory data management and strengthen quality management and capacity at clinical laboratories across the nation.

Objective

This evaluation aimed to quantify the effects of implementing OpenELIS on data quality for laboratory tests related to HIV care and treatment.

Methods

This evaluation used a quasi-experimental design to perform an interrupted time-series analysis to estimate th
