Treatment Seeking Behaviours
Opis:
Home management and treatment seeking behaviours of malaria was assessed among parents of 905 under five years children from 183 rural communities in 8 Local Government Areas (LGAs). Ethical approvals were obtained in addition to interactive sessions with parents and structured questionnaires were administered to the parents. Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 20 to assess association with p-value of < 0.05. A significant (p < 0.05) relationship observed between socio-economic factors and treatment seeking behaviours and preventive measures. There was no significant (p = 0.614) difference between symptoms observed in children across the LGAs. There was no significant (p = 0.061, p = 0.059, p = 0.071) relationship between parents demographic characteristics (age, sex and ethnicity) and preventive measures while educational status has a significant (p = 0.043) relationship. There was a significant (p = 0.042, p = 0.021) relationship between occupation and monthly income and preventive measures. Educational status was significantly (p = 0.013) related to knowledge on malaria while monthly income was not significantly (p = 0.201) related. Also there was a significant (p = 0.000 and p = 0.000) relationship between both educational status and monthly income and treatment seeking behaviours and are positively correlated (r = +0.101 and r = +0.136). Effectiveness of home management of malaria (HMM) and treatment seeking behaviours is challenged by the prevailing socio-cultural and economic issues.

Opis:
Efficacy of Rectal Artesunate on parasitaemia and febrile condition of children was assessed in 905 children below the age of 5 years. Grid systematic method was employed in selecting sixteen study centres from 8 Local Government Areas of Ogun State. Ethical approvals were obtained in addition to interactive sessions with parents of the children and PHCs medical practitioners. Body weight and temperature were taken and drug was administered at a dose of 5 to 10mg/kg of the body weight per rectum at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours. Efficacy of treatment was monitored by analysing blood samples taken at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours for Malaria Parasites Count (MPC/µl), parasitized red blood cells (PRBC). Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 20 to assess association with p-value of < 0.05. A significant (p < 0.05) difference was observed between malaria parasites prevalence at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours. Also a baseline mean malaria parasite density (MPC/µl) of 3,320/μl was observed at 0 hour and a reduction in mean MPC/µl of 1,230/μl and 420/μl at 24 hours and 48 hours respectively with a significant (p < 0.05) difference between MPC/µl at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours. Baseline mean parasitized red blood cells (PRBC) of 4.2 % was observed at 0 hour with reduction in mean PRBC of 2.4 % and 1.1 % at 24 and 48 hours respectively with a significant (p < 0.05) difference between PRBC at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours. Fever Subsidence Ratio between 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours were 1.4:1.1. Rectal artesunate is highly effective and well tolerated antimalarial suppository for pre-referral and parenteral therapy.

Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 20 to assess association with p-value of < 0.05. Impact of Rectal Artesunate was monitored by analysing blood samples taken at 0 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours for Packed Cells Volume (PCV) and Haemoglobin concentration (Hb). There was a significant (p < 0.05) increase in baseline PCV (L/L) and Hb (g/L) during 48 hours across the LGAs. Parasitaemia (MPC/µl) in children has a significant (p < 0.05) association with anaemia (PCV and Hb) and was positively correlated (r = +0.348 and r =+ 0.201). A significant (p < 0.05) difference observed between MCV (fl), MCH (pg) and MCHC (g/L) at 0 hour and MCV (fl), MCH (pg) and MCHC (g/L) at 48 hours. More awareness on the use of Rectal Artesunate in reducing anaemia due to malaria in children should be created since it is highly effective antimalarial suppository.

home management of malaria
treatment seeking behaviours
Opis:
Home management of malaria involves presumptively treating febrile children at clinic or near home with antimalarial drugs distributed by trained members of the community provide medications and educate primary caregivers about treatment of malaria and recognition of severe illness. Structured questionnaires were administered to the parents, health workers and patent medicine vendors to determine acceptability of rectal artesunate and treatment seeking behaviours. Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 20 to assess association with p-value of < 0.05. Current first line antimalarial drug for treating childhood malaria at the PHCs was artesunate derivatives (90.3%) with no usage of chloroquine derivatives (0%) and common route of administration was intra-muscular (81.4%) with least usage of rectal (6.2%). Patent medicine vendors showed that the common drug derivatives purchase for treating childhood malaria was chloroquine derivatives (89.2%) with oral (91.9%) as most common route of administration and no awareness of rectal route (0%). Cases of resistance of malaria parasites to anti-malarial drugs, mostly chloroquine derivatives (89.3%) and least with artesunate derivatives (7.1%) observed by health workers. Incomplete dosage (95.6%) and fake drug (84.9%) were described as main factors responsible for malaria parasite resistance. Patent medicine vendors have come across cases of resistance of malaria parasites to anti-malarial drugs mostly chloroquine derivatives (93.2%) with drug abuse (89.2%) and fake drug (82.4%). Treatment of malaria is challenged by inadequate health-care infrastructure and community-based interventions.

Opis:
Community-based case management of malaria has been shown to be effective in reducing mortality and morbidity. Overall total of 183 communities comprising 36(19.7%) communities in Egba Goe-Political Zone (GPZ), 56(30.6%) in Yewa-Awori GPZ, 43(23.5%) in Remo GPZ, and 48(26.2%) in Ijebu GPZ. There was a significant (p = 0.011) difference between preventive measures against malaria adopted for children across LGAs. Involvement in environmental management /sanitation as part of control measure (78.0%) can mostly help in tackling the adverse effects of malaria parasites transmission. They also agreed that mosquitoes breed majorly in stagnant water (77%) and Ponds (74.6%) and they did not always use (54.4%) their ITN/LLITN and their family mostly used ITN/LLITN during rainy season (84.4%). Fresh-water Rain Forest (44.3%) and Lowland Rain Forest (43.2%) are common forest vegetation types. Communities having plains topographical structure were more (91.3%) with close/compact (54.6%) type of settlement and are more densely populated (51.9%). Water bodies present are small rivers (100%). House type common in the communities was mud with iron sheets (100%) and drainage system (36.2%) was not common. Communities Involvement in environmental management/sanitation as part of control measure will reduce malaria parasite transmission.
