Abstract

This is participatory action research of studying the development of the “Health Products Risks Surveillance System” by community participation of Ban Wang Hin, Village No. 2, Sa Kaeo Subdistrict, Pueai Noi District, Khon Kaen Province. The participants in this study were selected by a purposive sampling method consisting of 62 people. Data collecting was both quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative data were analyzed by using the packaged software with descriptive statistics and compared the differences of the average of the knowledge scores and the average of health product practices scores before and after the development using Paired t-test at the statistical significance level of 0.05. Lastly, qualitative data were analyzed by using content analysis.

​            The results of the research show that there are 4 steps in a health product risk surveillance system; 1)There is a notification when suspecting that health products are at risk through LINE application; 2)Health Promoting Hospital staff and Public Health Volunteers inspect informed health products, 3)If the risks are found, then take actions to control them, 4) Report the inspection results to the Sa Kaeo Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital, which is a system created by all steps and activities of the research participants. It is different from prior development in which the surveillance of community health products was held by public health officials and health volunteers monitoring by only visiting shops in the community. The results of present development’s knowledge and practices testing score significantly statistical higher than prior development (p-value<0.001). The participants from all institutions in the community are required in every step in order to succeed in this present development.
