Interview of clinicians about Typhoid fever problem showed that , cases are diagnosed
using Widal test. WHO recommends diagnosis by a blood or stool culture . The observed
outbreak of typhoid fever in Kabarole could be hypothetical.

13. CONCLUSION
 Kabarole district is not meeting 80% Timeliness &
Completeness target for HMIS 033b reporting.
Currently T=32% C=63%
 Health facilities diagnose typhoid fever by Widal test instead of
doing blood or stool culture

14. Recommendations
• The district FETP-Frontline participants to intensify targeted support
supervision and mentorships of all health workers on HMIS reporting
• The FETP- Frontline Team from Kabarole to intensify sensitization of the
clinical & lab staff on diagnosis of enteric fevers by blood or stool culture.
• Procure from MOH guidelines on laboratory confirmation of typhoid fever
and distribute to all Health Facilities.
• The BIOSTATISTICIAN will intensify monthly feedback to reporting H/Fs
