Accelerated malaria elimination project : elimination of P. falciparum and P. vivax malaria in an area of multidrug antimalarial resistance
Objectives
The aim of this project is to counter the spread of multidrug resistant P. falciparum.
Specific objectives are:
1) to further reduce/eliminate the reservoir of asymptomatic carriers and (pauci)-symptomatic patients
2) to maintain the pre-elimination incidence towards elimination
3) to sustain the ongoing monitoring of malaria cases and to remain reactive in case of any indications of malaria resurgence
Rationale and Abstract
In Preah Vihear and Stung Treng Provinces in the North-East of Cambodia, the accelerated malaria elimination project was carried out based on strengthened passive case detection and active case detection.
