Background: Immunization is the effective method of preventing childhood diseases. One of the important elements for improving the immunization is cold chain and vaccine logistics management which are the left and right hands of immunization programme. Keeping this in mind, the present study was done with the objectives a) to ascertain the status of cold chain equipment and logistics management using GOI monitoring format and b) to ascertain the awareness and practice of cold chain handlers about cold chain equipment and logistics management in Durg district of Chhattisgarh, India.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among randomly selected 20 cold chain points (CCPs) of Durg district using standard GOI structured questionnaires.Results: Out of 20 cold chain points (CCPs), 20% CCPs, vaccine were found in frozen state. Functional thermometer was available in 75% CCPs, out of which 65% had temperature in the recommended range. Twice daily recording of temperature was found only in 95 % CCPs. Record of power failures and defrosting was noted in temperature log books in 70% CCPs. The correct placement of ice packs inside Deep freezer was observed in only one CCPs. T-series vaccine vials were placed properly in ILR in 85% CCPs. With respect to knowledge on freeze sensitive vaccine and shake test, 74 % and 53% of cold chain handlers had correct knowledge.Conclusions: The quality of immunization programme can be increased by proper maintenance of cold chain and management of vaccine logistics at every designated cold chain points. There is need to improve the knowledge level of CCHs regarding cold chain maintenances and handling practices.
