16 Strategy 2: Integrated Vector Management 1. Increased coverage of IRS and treated bednets 2. Used of LLINs 3. Other control measures such as environmental manipulation, larvaciding, use of repellents 4. Vector surveillance 5. Multi-agency collaboration

17 Strategy 2: Integrated Vector Management 1. Strengthened residual spraying activities FOCI (when there are cases and receptive) AKTIVITI SEMBURAN Regular residual spraying 100% Every 6 months 8 cycles Focal spraying 100% Every 6 months At least 2 cycles until no more cases for one year b. In receptive and vulnerable areas, special spraying permanent structure: 100% coverage every 6 months semi-permanent structure, every 3 months (until no longer vulnerable) c. Monitor coverage d. Monitor insecticide resistance

18 IRS COVERAGE % IRS coverage for population at risk in Sabah, % IRS coverage % IRS coverage for population at risk in Sarawak, % IRS coverage Sabah: 100% coverage by 2016 Sarawak: 100% coverage by 2015 WM: 100% coverage by

Optimise interagency collaboration within the country and with bordering countries.

22 Strategy 3: Early detection and prompt treatment Criteria for screening (control programme) Malarious areas Incidence > 10 cases per 10,000 population a) 10% of outpatient attendees with fever/anemia/history of fever b) Pregnant women: BFMP during every ante-natal t visit it to the clinic i and during home visit Malaria Prone Areas Incidence 1 10/10,000 population 5% of outpatient attendees including pregnant women with fever, history of fever past 3 months, past history of malaria, anemia Malaria Free Areas Incidence < 1/10,000 population 5% of outpatient attendees including pregnant women with symptoms suggestive of malaria, travel history to malarious area, known foci nearby

23 Strategy 3: Early detection and prompt treatment 1. Criteria for screening at health facilities: Area Target groups Out-patient attendees with fever (including non Malaysians) Non Malaysians from malaria endemic countries (all non-documented) Pregnant mothers at first visit (100%) and if has any of the followings during subsequent visits it or home visits; it fever, anemia or IUGR Out-patient attendees with fever and symptoms suggestive of malaria (include non Malaysians) Out-patient attendees with fever and risk factors (travel history, forest related activities) All non Malaysians from malaria endemic countries (including pregnant mothers) Pregnant mother with fever and risk factors

24

25 Strategy 3: Early detection and prompt treatment 2. Early diagnosis: microscopy equipped health facilities with microscopy trained microscopists examination of slides (OPD) within the same day recehecking of slides (100% positive slides and 10% negative ones) EQA and competency testing 3. Rapid diagnostic test? 4. PCR 5. PCD post and Sub-sector offices in Sabah and Sarawak. 6. Treatment Review treatment guideline: Use of ACT. Completion of treatment 7. Drug resistance 8. Follow up of cases according to species 9. Surveillance among high risk groups (foreign workers)

26 Diagnosis : microscopy

27 Strategy 4: Preparedness and outbreak response Early detection of outbreak surveillance system (number of cases) information on the opening up of new areas foreign workers from endemic areas Control of outbreak within 6 weeks Case investigation Vector control activities acceptability, coverage Strategy 5: Social Mobilisation and Communication Improved knowledge and awareness among population at risk. Community mobilisation to control malaria.

28 Strategy 6: Capacity Building Staff Training microscopy vector control activities IVM Management of malaria (Medical Officers and Assistant t Medical Officers) re-orientation programme Assets: vehicles, microscope, spray cans etc Operational research Strategy 7: Research

29 KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS No Indicator Target 1 Annual reduction of cases 20% 2 Case fatality 0 3 Coverage of treated nets for population at risk 100% 4 Coverage of indoor residual spraying for population 100% at risk 5 Number of cases investigated 100% 6 Number of cases completed treatment 100% 7 BSMP slides with inaccurate reading (error rate) < 1% 8 BFMP slides examined within the same day (health 100% clinics) 9 Control of outbreak within 6 weeks 85% 10 Increased health education activities for population at risk Note: 47 indicators 10%

30 CHALLENGES 1. High risk groups: mobile population, p migrant workers from endemic areas, plantation workers, rubber tappers, loggers, travelers to endemic countries, those involved with forest related activities 2. Inaccessible areas, logistics problems especially in Sabah and Sarawak 3. Control activities at the border areas.
