5 Introduction Pharmacovigilance in Africa is considered as very weak Pharmacovigilance is no more seen as a luxuary activity Pharmacovigilance is in the heart of: Drug Safety, Rational use of drugs Patient Safety Performance of Public Health Programmes
6 Aims of the presentation What is the Actual situation of Pharmacovigilance? What are the contributing factors for it s development? Is there any differences between regions and/or countries? What are the lessons to be learned? No Global and objective study has been performed to quantify the performance of PV in Africa

33 What are the contributing factors for Pharmacovigilance development?
34 Possible contributing factors for PV development? PV Development Leadership Advocacy Continuty
35 Possible contributing factors for PV development? Drug Policy PV Development Total Pharmaceutical expenditure (per capita) Number of pharmaceutical industry Leadership Advocacy Continuty
36 Possible contributing factors for PV development? Health Development Drug Policy PV Development Expenditure on Health (% of GDB, per capita) work health density Hospitals beds (per 10000) WHO ranking Total Pharmaceutical expenditure (per capita) Number of pharmaceutical industry Leadership Advocacy Continuty
37 Possible contributing factors for PV development? Country specificity Human development Health Development Drug Policy PV Development GDP per capita, Human development index multidimensional poverty index Expenditure on Health (% of GDB, per capita) work health density Hospitals beds (per 10000) WHO ranking Total Pharmaceutical expenditure (per capita) Number of pharmaceutical industry Leadership Advocacy Continuty
38 Results: contributing Factors HD ( P=0,822397), Health factors scores ( P=0,6) don t explain the performance of PV Size of population (P=0,03) -GDP per capita (P=0,01) -Multidimensional poverty index (P = 0,008) seems to have an effect on PV performance
39 Performance of PV and membership seniority in the WHO program of PV When the seniority of membership in the WHO program of PV increases by one year the average score of the performance increase of 0.6 units

41 Lessons learnt There is a good progress in all African countries but with a significant disparity Geographic situation, Country Development, Health Systems Development, Human Development index, GDP per Capita don t seem to have an effect on PV Performance Size of population, language, Membership Seniority in WHO programme and pharmaceutical development Seem to have an effect on PV on PV performance 13/01/
42 Lessons learnt Concept and Principles of PV need TIME to be fully understood Leadership and dedicated personnel is essential Advocacy and continuity are a sine qua non condition for PV Viability Minimum established staff is essential Linkages with international network are essential Need for PV to be recognized and promoted and by PHP Health authority and international support is needed Networking with regional and international groups must continue 13/01/
