| dc.description.abstract | To end HIV/AIDS epidemics by 2030, the world is on a Fast-Track strategy. To achieve this, the concept of three 90s (90-90-90) was developed where by 2020, 90% of people who are HIV infected will be diagnosed, 90% of people who are diagnosed will be on Antiretroviral treatment and 90% of those who received ART will be virally suppressed. Ethiopia has achieved exemplary successes in terms of HIV service expansion and uptake, which impacted to 81% decline of new HIV infection from 1995 to 2016, but only 73% of people know their HIV status. Interruption of supplies and stock outs HIV rapid test kits decrease the HIV testing performance of health facilities in the Addis Ababa and ultimately hinders the achievement of the first 90 target. The aim of this study is to assess factors affecting the HIV rapid test kits Supply chain management performance in selected public hospitals and health centers in Addis Ababa Health Bureau. Health facility based descriptive and explanatory study design was used for quantitative and qualitative data collection techniques to gather the required data from May 5-15, 2020. Accordingly both parametric, specifically descriptive statistics like mean, frequency and percentage, non-parametric tests Spearman’s Correlation test was used. And it was found that only 50% of the health facilities testing units perform all test due to shortage of Abon (2nd test) and SD Bioline (3rd test). And 71.4% of health facilities encountered HIV testing service interruption at the laboratory unit in the last 6 months prior to data collection. The Non parametric, Spearman’s Correlation shows there is a statistical significance positive correlation between HIV rapid test kits supply chain management performance and Health Facility Environment (N=48, sig (2-tailed) =0.002, P<0.05); Top Management Commitment (N=48, sig (2-tailed) =0.002, P<0.05); Mutual Understand and Trust (N=48, sig (2-tailed) =0.009, P<0.05); Information Sharing and Flow (N=48, sig (2-tailed) =0.030, P<0.05); Consumers Demand (N=48, sig (2-tailed) =0.000, P<0.05). Increase the availability of the 2nd and 3rd test by limiting the testing unit and or increase the supply so as to decrease HIV test interruption. Health facilities should give due attention for factors affecting the HIV rapid test kits supply chain performance negatively. | en_US |
