A functional and responsive pharmacovigilance system is an essential element of any health system. After a medicine gains regulatory approval and begins to be used by doctors and patients a pharmacovigilance system will monitor the drug’s safety in real world settings by trying to detect, understand, and prevent adverse drugs reactions and other drug-related problems.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for oxygen and other respiratory care supplies and equipment around the globe.In response, PATH conducted a biomedical equipment survey in 692 health facilities across the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The purpose of the survey was to quantify the existing oxygen production and delivery equipment, consumables for administering oxygen therapy, bed capacity, and facility infrastructure that are relevant to providing respiratory care. Survey results suggest an overall scarcity of critical equipment and unequal distribution across surveyed facilities in the DRC.This report summarizes observations from the collected data and is intended to help global and national stakeholders understand COVID-19 treatment capacity in DRC.
