2. General Objectives:
Meaning of Cold Chain.
Define Cold Chain.
Cold Chain Equipments.
a. Walk in Rooms.
b. Deep Freezers.
c. Ice Lined Refrigerators.
d. Cold Boxes.
e. Vaccine Carriers, Day carriers and Ice Packs.
Nurses Responsibility in cold chain.
3. Introduction
Cold chain is the system used for storing vaccines in good
condition. It is otherwise called a vaccine supply chain or
immunization supply chain. It is a series of links that are
designed to keep vaccines within WHO-recommended
temperature ranges from the point of manufacture to the
point of immunization.
4. Definition
The ‘Cold Chain’ is a system of storage, transport and
distribution of vaccines in the state of efficacy and
potency at recommended temperature from the
manufacturer to the actual recipient of the vaccine.
5. Transport and Storage
All the vaccine must be stored, transported and distributed
at the recommended temperature by the manufatcurer in
the literature accompanying the vaccine, otherwise they
may become denatured and totally ineffective with loss of
potency. For successful cold chain system, three elements
are essential, i.e. cold chain equipment, transportation
system and motivation and training of the workers for
maintenance of cold chain link.
6. Cont..
Among all vaccine, polio is the most heat sensitive,
requiring storage at 20oC. Polio and measles vaccines
must be stored in the freezer compartment. DPT, DT, TT,
BCG Typhoid and diluents of vaccines must be stored in
the cold part and never allowed to freeze. Vaccines must
be protected from sunlight and contact of antiseptic. At the
health centers, most vaccines, except polio, can be stored
at 4 to 80C for 5 weeks.
7. Cont..
Multidose opened vial, which is not used fully must be
discarded, within one hour, if no preservative is present. It
should be discarded within one hour, if no preservative is
present. It should be discarded within 3 hours or at the end
of a session when preservative is used. Necessary
instruction for the particular vaccine must be followed
regarding maintenance of required temperature.
Instruction for maintenance of vaccine vial monitor
(VVM) especially for oral polio vaccine should be
followed strictly.
8. Cold Chain Equipments
They are the Walk in Cold Rooms, Deep Freezers, Ice
Lined Refrigerators, Cold Boxes, Vaccine Carriers,
Day Carriers and Ice Packs.
9. Walk in Cold Rooms
In the regional Level, vaccines can be stored for 4 to 5
districts in the walk in cold rooms at recommended
temperature upto 3 months.
10. Deep Freezers
Deep Freezer is a top opening Cold Chain equipment and
available as 300 liters or 140 liters capacity. Big deep
freezer (300 ltr) is supplied to all districts and the WIC
locations along with ice lined refrigerators (ILR). Deep
freezers are used for making ice packs and for storing
polio and measles vaccines. A pair of deep freezer and
ILR is connected to a common voltage stabilizer. Small
deep freezers (140 liter) along with ILR are supplied to
PHCs, urban family planning centers and postpartum
centers.
11. Ice Lined Refrigerators
Ice lined refrigerators (ILR) is top opening refrigerator.
Two types of ILR are available, one with ice tubes
(electrolux) and other with ice packs (vest frost) as the ice
lining. The bottom of the ILR is the coldest part. DPT, DT,
TT and diluents should not be kept directly on the floor of
the ILR as they can freeze and get denatured. These
vaccines should be kept in the basket provided within the
ILR.
12. Cont..
Temperature of the ILR should be recorded twice a day
with the dial thermometer which should be kept inside the
ILR, even if there is an in built thermometer. Defrosting
should be done at regular interval with alternative
arrangement of storing the vaccines. During electric
supply failure or equipment failure, vaccines should be
transferred to cold boxes and then to alternate storage.
13. Cont..
Deep freezer and ILR should be kept in cool room,
away from direct sunlight and at least 10 cm away from
the wall. They will be kept in levelled and to be fixed
through voltage stabilizer. The vaccines should be kept
inside the ILR neatly with space in between for air
circulation. The ILR should be kept locked and open
only when necessary. Do not keep any object on the
deep freezer or ILR. Never store any other drugs,
drinking water, foods or date expired vaccines or more
than one month requirements at PHC level and do not
open these equipment unless required.
14. Cold Boxes
Cold boxes are available at all peripheral health
centres. They are used for transporting vaccines and
also for storing vaccines during failure of electric
supply. Fully frozen ice packs are placed at the bottom
and sides of the cold box before placing the vaccines in
it. The vaccines should be first packed in cartons or
polythene bags then to be kept inside the cold box.
DPT, DT, TT vaccines and diluents should not be kept
in direct contact with the frozen ice packs.
15. Vaccine Carriers
Vaccine carriers are used to carry 16 to 20 vials of
vaccines to out reach sites to the subcenters, villages,
vaccination clinic or camp. Four fully frozen ice packs
are placed for lining the sides of the carriers. DPT, DT,
TT and diluents should not be placed in direct contact
of frozen ice packs. The carrier must be closed tightly.
16. Day Carriers
Day carriers are used for nearby areas and only for few
hours period with two fully frozen ice packs. It is used to
carry small quantities of vaccines, i.e. 6 to 8 vials only.
17. Ice Packs
Ice packs are used for cold boxes and vaccine carriers. It is
prepared in the deep freezer. Ice pack contains water, filed
upto the level marked on the side. No salt is added to it.
Leak ice pack should not be used.
18. Cont..
At present, household refrigerator and flask are not
recommended as cold chain equipment. Cold chain failure
is commonly observed at sub-center and supplied for the
day of use only. Nurses, especially the community health
nurses have to play major role in maintaining cold chain
to protect the potency of vaccines. Successful
implementation of immunization program depends upon
maintenance of vaccine potency at the delivery end of
actual vaccination site.
19. Nurses Responsibility
Maintenance of cold chain system at immunization centre
or during transportation of vaccines to home or clinics
with necessary precautions to preserve the efficacy and
potency of the vaccines. Care of cold chain equipment and
maintenance of recommended temperature for vaccines
are crucial aspects of the success of immunization
program.
20. Conclusion
Refrigerators, freezers, boxes and carriers for safe storage
and transport of vaccines. Equipped with data loggers.
Solar powered. Adapted to unstable power.
21. Summary
Summary includes introduction, definition, transport,
storage, cold chain equipments and temperature for
vaccine storages.
