Determinants of malaria testing at health facilities: The case of Uganda

Publication Date:

Poster

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends prompt malaria diagnosis through microscopy or mRDTs, and treatment with an effective antimalarial as key interventions to control malaria.Unfortunately, in sub-Saharan Africa, patients and care providers often do not test fever cases before treating them for malaria.[2] To mitigate this risk in Uganda, the National Malaria Reduction Strategic Plan aims to test at least 75% of malaria suspects. We sought to assess health facilities’ capacity to provide quality malaria diagnosis and treatment in 43 districts.
