Abstract

Malaria is still a serious public health problem in Central Sulawesi. Only same parts of Donggala regency which it consists of the west and east coast areas have been included in malaria control programme with house spraying. To obtain the appropriate malaria control method in these areas, the malariometric survey was conducted in Sindue and Ampibabo subdistricts on May 1995. The objective of this survey were to assess the endemicity and malaria parasite rate, and to identify the species of Plasmodium in those subdistricts. The malariometric survey was carried out on all children aged 0-9 years and clinical malaria patients from the 6 villages of Sindue Subdistrict and another 6 villages of Ampibabo Subdistrict. Physical examination included spleen examination by the Hackett method and malarial peripheral blood examination stained by Giemsa were performed. Clinical malaria and positive malaria patients were treated with chloroquine and primaquine regimen based on the Ministry of Health guidance. InSindue and Ampibabo subdistrict, the SR (2-9 years), AES (2-9 years), IPR (0-11 mo), PR (2-9 years), FF (Pf and mixed) and SFR (Pf and mioxed) were 26.9-53.4% and 21.5%-64.3%, 1.9-2.5 and 1.9-2.4, 6.6-34.3% and 1.5-17.9%, 0-33.3% and 0-6.7%, 6.8-35.4% and 1.8-18.5%, 25.7-90.9% and 50.0-90.0%, 5.0-13.8% and 1.0-14.0% respectively. In Sindue Subdistrict, there were falciparum malaria, vivax malaria, malariae malaria and mixed malaria infected by P. falciparum and P. vivax. However, in Ampibabo Subdistrict there were only falciparum and vivax malaria. Sindue Subdistrict is a mesoendemic-hyperendemic malaria area, high prevalence area, mainly infected by P. falciparum and there is active transmission. Ampibabo Subdistrict is also a mesoendemic-hyperendemic malaria area, high prevalence area in several villages, mainly infected by P. falciparum and there is active transmission. The appropriate malaria control programme which could be implemented in Sumari, Taripa and Saloya Villages are prompt treatment and distribution of bed nets. while in the other villages malaria control could be implemented by house spraying especially in the villages with IPR >0% and mainly infected by falciparum
