Botswana |
Shortly after ETR.Net was implemented in all 9 provinces
in South Africa, the software was adapated for use in other countries (ETR Regional).
The first country to implement the regional version of ETR.Net, was Botswana.
The first training workshop was held in 2005, with a further 2 workshops being held
during 2005 and 2006 in order to train the rest of the relevant role players. |

|
Guatemala |
In Guatemala, ETR.Net has been tested for another
purpose, i.e. not routine national TB Surveillance. The software is being tested for use in
a specific short term study.
The software was translated into Spanish for use in Guatemala. |

|
South Africa |
The first country to implement ETR.Net was South Africa.
The software was developed in South Africa and was first implemented in the Northern Cape and Limpopo provinces, in the first quarter
of 2004 . Over the next several months the software
was adapted and improved based on user feedback and actual implementation experiences,
as the software was rolled out to the other 7 provinces in South Africa.
Currently the software is being used in all 9 provinces by approximately 200 users
at various levels (i.e. sub-district, district, province, national,
etc.). The national
database (which has recently been upgraded to SQL Server/MSDE) contains more than 1 million patients for the period 2003 to 2005. |
