Resum
--- - Label: OBJECTIVES NlmCategory: OBJECTIVE content: A
Demographic and Health Platform was established in Magude in
2015, prior to the deployment of a project aiming to evaluate
the feasibility of malaria elimination in southern Mozambique,
named the Magude project. This platform aimed to inform the
design, implementation and evaluation of the Magude project,
through the identification of households and population; and the
collection of demographic, health and malaria information. -
Label: SETTING NlmCategory: METHODS content: Magude is a rural
district of southern Mozambique which borders South Africa. It
has nine peripheral health facilities and one referral health
centre with an inpatient ward. - Label: INTERVENTION
NlmCategory: METHODS content: "A baseline census enumerated and
geolocated all the households, and their resident and
non-resident members, collecting demographic and socio-economic
information, and data on the coverage and usage of malaria
control tools. Inpatient and outpatient data during the
5\xE2\x80\x89years (2010 to 2014) before the survey were
obtained from the district health authorities. The demographic
platform was updated in 2016." - Label: RESULTS NlmCategory:
RESULTS content: "The baseline census conducted in 2015 reported
48\xE2\x80\x89448 (92.1%) residents and 4133 (7.9%)
non-residents, and 10\xE2\x80\x89965 households. Magude's
population is predominantly young, half of the population has no
formal education and the main economic activities are
agriculture and fishing. Houses are mainly built with
traditional non-durable materials and have poor sanitation
facilities. Between 2010 and 2014, malaria was the most common
cause of all-age inpatient discharges (representing 20% to 40%
of all discharges), followed by HIV (12% to 22%) and anaemia
(12% to 15%). In early 2015, all-age bed-net usage was between
21.8% and 27.1%\xE2\x80\x89and the reported coverage of indoor
residual spraying varied across the district between 30.7% and
79%." - Label: CONCLUSION NlmCategory: CONCLUSIONS content: This
study revealed that Magude has limited socio-economic
conditions, poor access to healthcare services and low coverage
of malaria vector control interventions. Thus, Magude
represented an area where it is most pressing to demonstrate the
feasibility of malaria elimination. - Label: TRIAL REGISTRATION
