The Global Health Security Agenda aims to improve countries' ability to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious disease threats by building or strengthening core capacities required by the International Health Regulations (2005). One of those capacities is the development of surveillance systems to rapidly detect and respond to occurrences of diseases with epidemic potential. Since 2015, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has worked with partners in Sierra Leone to assist the Ministry of Health and Sanitation in developing an Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) system. Beginning in 2016, CDC, in collaboration with the World Health Organization and eHealth Africa, has supported the ministry in the development of Android device mobile data entry at the health facility for electronic IDSR (eIDSR), also known as health facility-based eIDSR. Health facility-based eIDSR was introduced via a pilot program in 1 district, and national rollout began in 2018. With more than 1,100 health facilities now reporting, the Sierra Leone eIDSR system is substantially larger than most mobile-device health (mHealth) projects found in the literature. Several technical innovations contributed to the success of health facility-based eIDSR in Sierra Leone. Among them were data compression and dual-mode (internet and text) message transmission to mitigate connectivity issues, user interface design tailored to local needs, and a continuous-feedback process to iteratively detect user or system issues and remediate challenges identified. The resultant system achieved high user acceptance and demonstrated the feasibility of an mHealth-based surveillance system implemented on a national scale.
