Eligibility Criteria
Study participants will be the patients presenting at study clinics with signs and symptoms of malaria (including but not limited to headache, body aches, fever, chills, and weakness) and confirmed P. falciparum infection.
You may qualify if:
- Patients (6 months - 75 years) with confirmed uncomplicated P. falciparum infection
- Written informed consent obtained
You may not qualify if:
- Patients presenting signs of severe malaria will be excluded from the survey to prevent any delay in the management of the patient.
