EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY
The study concludes that health education intervention has improved the knowledge of the mothers about the various malaria prevention strategies among the nursing mothers with non-significant change in attitude.
Caregivers acted promptly after the onset of fever. Among those that acted, only 48(32%) took an appropriate action, either tepid sponging the child or giving an analgesic. There was statistically significant relationship between malaria knowledge and first action taken at home. In majority of children, the mothers prescribed and purchased the antimalarials from PMVs.
The reason given by majority of the women was proximity of the drug outlets to their homes and familiarity with the PMVs. Women who were aged 18-42 years were more likely to prescribe and buy drugs from the PMVs themselves, than visit the health care facility.
