First Published Abstract in AFRIHEALTH Magazine

CAAHRAD's latest research on clinical workflow digitisation in Northern Nigerian hospitals has been selected for publication in the upcoming issue of AFRIHEALTH Magazine.

The Centre for African Allied Health Research and Advisory (CAAHRAD) has achieved a key milestone with the selection of its research abstract for publication in AFRIHEALTH Magazine, following four consecutive AFRIHEALTH conference appearances by Group Founder Ayokunle Elisha Kayode-Onaleye.

The paper examines practical adoption barriers and workflow improvements observed during the deployment of electronic medical records and laboratory information systems across secondary and private health facilities.

Evidence-Based Digitisation in Nigerian Healthcare

“Digitising a paper-based hospital is twenty percent software and eighty percent workflow architecture and human capacity.”

Key findings highlight that facilities pairing software deployment with dedicated on-site health-tech staffing and phased departmental onboarding achieve significantly higher clinician retention and data completeness.

These empirical insights directly inform both CAAHRAD's institutional advisory engagements with state ministries of health and the product engineering roadmap of Tech Suite Pro.
