研究概览
简要总结
The study has two components: component A is a cohort study to determine the in vivo efficacy of SP to clear and prevent malaria parasitaemia in asymptomatic pregnant women and component B is a cross sectional study of women delivering at the study hospitals to assess the effectiveness of SP-IPTp to reduce adverse maternal and birth outcomes in the current context of increasing SP resistance. Results of component A and B studies will be used to model the relationship between the prevalence of molecular markers of SP resistance, in vivo efficacy to clear parasite and the effectiveness of SP-IPTp and to develop guidelines for routine monitoring effectiveness of SP-IPTp as part of ANC surveillance.
详细描述
Study sites will include different levels of transmission and social factors affecting ANC attendance Damboa hospital in Borno state has a catchment area with pop of 231,573 with a semi arid climate and where malaria is mesoendemic. The expected number of patients is 15-25 per week for new bookings Park Lane hospital serves a semiurban population. Malaria transmission is holoendemic and stable. 1400 women attend ANC services per month Women will receive SP-IPTp according to National guidelines and will be followed for 42 days to assess the therapeutic efficacy in parasitaemic women and to assess the ability to remain parasite free. PCR will be used to determine reinfection from recrudescence
