Laboratory testing generates data, and data analysis contributes to the production of results that aid in problem resolution. As more samples are tested, more data is generated, and the complexity of data management increases. Surveillance monitoring and real-time assessment are crucial in managing insecticide resistance; consequently, manual management of insecticide resistance data requires digital transformation. The Insecticide Resistance Management System (IRMS) was developed in this study to analyse and manage 244 insecticide susceptibility data. This system permits immediate analysis following the entry of laboratory data. Red dots dominated green dots on a map displayed in IRMS depicting the prevalence of insecticide-resistant mosquito populations in both Aedes species. In addition, the heatmap revealed that the majority of Aedes aegypti were resistant to all tested insecticides during all monitoring cycles. This system circumvents the time-consuming limitations of manual data analysis by enabling rapid result visualisation and report generation.
