Exploring the use of routinely-available, retrospective data to study the association between malaria control scale-up and micro-economic outcomes in Zambia

Journal Publications, Malaria and Other Vector-borne Disease, Vector-borne Diseases, Where We Work

Country-level evidence on the impact of malaria control on micro-economic outcomes is vital for mobilizing domestic and donor resources for malaria control. Using routinely available survey data could facilitate this investigation in a cost-efficient way. The authors of this study used Malaria Indicator Surveys (MIS) and Living Conditions Monitoring Survey (LCMS) data from 2006 to […]

Association between Malaria Control Scale-Up and Microeconomic Outcomes: Evidence from a Retrospective Analysis in Zambia

Malaria and Other Vector-borne Disease, Presentations, Vector-borne Diseases

An HFG study assessing the associations between malaria control scale-up and micro-economic indicators in Zambia, where significant progress has been made in scaling up effective malaria control strategies, was presented at the 2015 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. Using data from 2006 to 2010 on the distribution of insecticide-treated […]

Hospitalizations and Costs Incurred at the Facility Level after Scale-up of Malaria Control: Pre-Post Comparisons from Two Hospitals in Zambia

Journal Publications, Malaria and Other Vector-borne Disease, Vector-borne Diseases

There is little evidence on the impact of malaria control on the health system, particularly at the facility level. Using retrospective, longitudinal facility-level and patient record data from two hospitals in Zambia, we report a pre-post comparison of hospital admissions and outpatient visits for malaria and estimated costs incurred for malaria admissions before and after […]
