Book Description
The report of the second meeting of the Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on In Vitro was launched in November 2019 and includes the updated WHO Model List of Essential In Vitro Diagnostics (EDL), which lists 122 in vitro diagnostic categories and incorporates evidence base and expositions of the applications to be included on the EDL and the basis of decisions made to list or reject these IVDs. The evidence is expected to guide countries on constituting their national EDLs. In addition the report also presents decision summaries on suggested edits to the first EDL, recommendations on various matters of in vitro diagnostics including the framework for developing future editions, and proposed actions for implementation of the EDL in regions and countries.

Book Description
"Access to good quality, affordable, and appropriate health products is indispensable to advance universal health coverage,address health emergencies,and promote healthier populations–the three strategic priorities of the World Health Organization (WHO)Thirteenth General Programme of Work 2019–2023.1Without access to In vitrodiagnostics (IVDs),health providers cannot diagnose patients effectively and promptly or provide appropriate treatments.In March 2017, the WHO Expert Committee on Selection and Use of Essential Medicines recommended the development of a Model List of Essential In Vitro Diagnostics (EDL), to complement the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines (EML). To support the EDL and to advise on other in vitro diagnostic initiatives, WHO created a Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on In VitroDiagnostics (SAGE-IVD). The SAGE-IVD, which includes 19 multidisciplinary members with global representation, held its first meeting from 16–20April 2018 at WHO headquarters, Geneva. The SAGE IVD made recommendations for the content, format and implementation of the first edition of the EDL.It is foreseen that EDL will be an important tool in increasing access to appropriate, affordable and quality-assured IVDs, particularly where they are most needed to address health priorities"--Executive summary.

Health system performance assessment

ISBN: 9240042474

Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Ensuring a robust and resilient health system involves policy actions which need to be implemented based on the best available evidence. This requires health systems to be monitored regularly to build on their strengths and to overcome any apparent shortcomings. In order to assist in that process, this volume, a collaboration between the World Health Organization and the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, presents a new framework to support monitoring of health system performance, with a focus on detailed conceptual links between health system functions and overall system goals. This HSPA framework for Universal Health Coverage thus represents a comprehensive attempt to address fundamental questions regarding regular assessment of health systems, including health system boundaries, component elements and outcomes. In this book, each of the health system function chapters outlines the purpose of the function, the sub-functions that enable it to carry out the key activities necessary to fulfil its purpose, as well as the assessment areas and proposed indicative measures to evaluate how well a system performs. The framework will thus assist policy-makers in understanding possible origins or impact of poor performance on a particular health system outcome, triggering more in-depth analysis.
WHO implementation handbook for national action plans on antimicrobial resistance

Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
In 2015 the World Health Assembly endorsed the Global action plan on antimicrobial resistance calling on countries to develop and implement national action plans on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). For most countries, the greatest challenge is not developing a national action plan; rather, it is the implementation of the plan based on evidence-based prioritization of activities, systematic monitoring of progress, and ensuring sustainability of efforts. The purpose of this publication is to to provide a practical, stepwise approach to the implementation of the national action plan on AMR within the human health sector; and to provide a process and collation of existing WHO tools to prioritize, cost, implement, monitor and evaluate national action plan activities. The target audience of the publication are national/subnational stakeholders working on AMR within the human health sector. This includes national health authorities, national multisectoral coordination groups, senior technical experts and policymakers involved in implementing AMR activities at all levels of the health system, and implementation partners to accelerate sustainable implementation and monitoring and evaluation of national action plans on AMR.
