For achieving >90% coverage in the shortest period at the session site level, a one-pager offline tool, which I wish to name as 'IMMUNOGRAM', is adequate. This tool incorporates the basic principle of 'My Village My Home', suitably expanded for IWs (Immunization Weeks) of IRI (Intensification of Routine Immunization) to begin with. This can serve several functions like: 1. 'LODO meter'; 2. 'LODO inhibitor'; 3. 'Herdimmunometer'; 4. Calculation of 'Child specific drop-outs; 5. Interval between subsequent doses, etc.
I wish to share the experience with an example of only one session site as a template of evidence. This is scalable. After using this in the field practice area of a poor-performing district with supportive monitoring coverage visibly improved in the study area. Hoping to expand the use of this tool elsewhere also.
