DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Malaria is a major public health problem in Madagascar where it is endemic in approximately 90% of the country. But, the entire population is considered to be at risk for the disease. Measures to control malaria in Madagascar are being scaled up thanks to the increased funding from multiple sources. It is essential that the National Malaria Control Programme and Roll Back Malaria Partners closely monitor the trends in malaria morbidity and mortality and evaluate the coverage and impact of interventions. Moreover, with the Madagascar National Strategy for Malaria Control, 2008-2012, has been designed with the goal of moving the country towards malaria pre-elimination and eventually elimination. High quality, effective and prompt surveillance is needed to monitor progress towards these goals. The epidemiology of malaria, intervention strategies and health sector development vary considerably among geographical regions of Madagascar. In 2007 an integrated fever sentinel surveillance system was begun in 13 initial geographically distinct sites and expanded yearly to a total of 31 operational sites as of January 2011. The surveillance system sites were chosen based on various criteria including diversity in terms of malaria epidemiology and malaria intervention coverage in order to track RBM indicators in various settings. The sentinel surveillance network currently reports daily febrile disease surveillance information using clinical case definitions and standard reporting methodology (ref. Randrianasolo et al). Since it's inception, data from the sentinel surveillance system have been used to regularly monitor disease trends and have identified several outbreaks in a timely manner, including chikungunya, rift valley fever and malaria. Since calendar year 2009, the President's Malaria Initiative (PMI), has supported the initial 13 sentinel surveillance sites and in 2010 began supporting 2 additional sites bringing the total to 15 total sites supported by PMI. In March 2010, PMI conducted a quality assessment of the IPM's fever sentinel site network to evaluate the quality and periodicity of data collected, to assess how the data is used in country by the MoH and partners and to assess the overall management of the system. Reported malaria cases and deaths through the national HMIS system have shown decreasing trends in morbidity and mortality between 2003 and 2009. Overall, hospital deaths attributed to malaria decreased from 17% in 2003 to 6% in 2009 (National Malaria Control Program, April, 2010). In 2009, malaria was responsible for an estimated 4% of all reported outpatient visits and 14% of all children under five years of age admitted to a hospital were diagnosed with severe malaria (INSTAT, 2010). In spite of this, malaria remains a leading cause of under-five mortality and, according to UNICEF, kills approximately 20,000 Malagasy children every year. Unfortunately, as in many countries, especially in Africa, the quality and reliability of information generated by the routine health information system is poor and the health information system rarely provides information on the burden of malaria at the community level (ref : REMMEJHF et al). The only option for monitoring trends in malaria mortality in Africa may be through demographic surveillance systems in specific sites. Fortunately such demographic surveillance system is just beginning in the district of Moramanga. The objectives of this work include: 1. Identify the burden and monitor trends of malaria in Madagascar through sentinel surveillance, network 2. Identify entomological activities and methodologies to link entomological data with human malaria case data in order to more accurately monitor the progress of the malaria control program. 3. Evaluate malaria program activities especially but not limited to assessing the effectiveness of integrated community case management in reducing malaria associated morbidity and mortality.

描述（由申请人提供）：疟疾是马达加斯加的一个主要公共卫生问题，在该国约90%的地区流行。但是，整个人口都被认为有患这种疾病的风险。由于多个来源的资金增加，马达加斯加的疟疾控制措施正在扩大。国家疟疾控制方案和减疟伙伴必须密切监测疟疾发病率和死亡率的趋势，并评价干预措施的覆盖面和影响。此外，制定了《2008-2012年马达加斯加国家疟疾控制战略》，目标是使该国实现消灭疟疾前和最终消灭疟疾。需要进行高质量、有效和迅速的监督，以监测实现这些目标的进展情况。马达加斯加各地区的疟疾流行病学、干预战略和卫生部门发展情况差异很大。2007年，在最初的13个地理位置不同的地点启动了综合发热哨点监测系统，并逐年扩大，截至2011年1月，共有31个运作地点。监测系统的地点是根据各种标准选择的，包括疟疾流行病学和疟疾干预措施覆盖面的多样性，以便在各种情况下跟踪减疟指标。哨兵监测网络目前使用临床病例定义和标准报告方法报告每日发热性疾病监测信息（参考文献Randrianasolo等人）。自成立以来，哨兵监测系统的数据一直用于定期监测疾病趋势，并及时发现了几起疫情，包括基孔肯雅热、裂谷热和疟疾。自2009日历年以来，总统疟疾倡议为最初的13个哨点监测点提供了支助，并于2010年开始为另外2个哨点提供支助，使总统疟疾倡议支助的哨点总数达到15个。2010年3月，预防疟疾倡议对IPM发热监测点网络进行了质量评估，以评价收集数据的质量和周期性，评估卫生部和合作伙伴如何在国内使用数据，并评估系统的总体管理。2003年至2009年期间，通过国家卫生管理信息系统报告的疟疾病例和死亡人数显示出发病率和死亡率下降的趋势。总体而言，疟疾导致的住院死亡率从2003年的17%下降到2009年的6%（国家疟疾控制方案，2010年4月）。2009年，据估计，疟疾占所有报告的门诊就诊人数的4%，在所有入院的5岁以下儿童中，14%被诊断患有严重疟疾（疟疾监测和评估小组，2010年）。尽管如此，疟疾仍然是五岁以下儿童死亡的主要原因，据儿童基金会称，每年约有20 000名马达加斯加儿童死于疟疾。不幸的是，在许多国家，特别是在非洲，常规卫生信息系统生成的信息质量和可靠性很差，卫生信息系统很少提供社区一级疟疾负担的信息（参考文献：REMMEJHF等）。监测非洲疟疾死亡率趋势的唯一选择可能是通过特定地点的人口监测系统。幸运的是，这种人口监测系统在Moramanga区刚刚开始。 这项工作的目标包括： 1.通过哨点监测和网络，确定马达加斯加疟疾负担并监测其趋势 2.确定昆虫学活动和方法，将昆虫学数据与人类疟疾病例数据联系起来，以便更准确地监测疟疾控制计划的进展。 3.评估疟疾项目活动，特别是但不限于评估综合社区病例管理在降低疟疾相关发病率和死亡率方面的有效性。
