On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The Kenyan hospital Clinical Information Network (CIN) was initiated in 2013 and included 14 hospitals by early 2014. It promoted the generation of high quality routine data using co-designed, structured paper medical records and data capture at discharge on all paediatric ward admissions. To date over 150,000 paediatric admission episodes have been captured in the database and the data used for local improvement, large scale observational studies and a cluster RCT. The platform currently supports malaria vaccine surveillance, a 10-site RCT and continues its improvement and service evaluation work. In 2018 the CIN had grown to include 19 hospitals and a neonatal ward system was established capturing data on 20,000 annual admissions. The neonatal CIN is supporting similar improvement efforts and large scale evaluations of technology introduction and health systems research.
