Objective:
In order to implement the elimination programme, we
reviewed the cases diagnosed at PoE from Jan 2010 to July 2015,
so as to provide suggestions to decrease the imported malaria
cases.
Methods:
Symptom-based surveillance was carried out on
travellers at the PoE of China, those who have fever and/or from
the Malaria endemic areas were actively monitored by infrared
temperature monitoring or medical inspected by travel health
experts. Rapid detect test (RDT), molecular or microscopically
detect method was used to diagnose the malaria. Information
relating to travel, demographics and others were recorded.
Results:
During the implementation of the national malaria
elimination programme (NMEP) from 2010 to 2015 in China, the
indigenous cases declined continuously. However, the imported
cases diagnosed at PoE increased annually. From Jan 2010 to July
2015, a total of 1035 cases were reported at PoE, the average age
was39.1±10 (ranged from4 to69) yearsoldandmaleaccounted for
95.3% (985/1053). A total of 981 cases are from China, distributed
in Angola, Guinea, Nigeria, Ghana and other countries. Among 627
cases detected by typing methods,
Plasmodium
falciparum
was
the predominant, accounting 82.5%, then was
Plasmodium vivax
of
15.5%,
Plasmodium malariae
and
Plasmodium ovale
were the least
of 1.4% and 0.6%, respectively.
Conclusions:
The implementation of active surveillance at PoE
has successfully increased the number of reported malaria
cases annually, although the indigenous cases have dramatically
declined since 2010. The reason may due to the implementation
of China NMEP, as well as stricter measurements carried out at
PoE when MERS, Ebola, Zika and Yellow fever spread globally,
partly due to more sensitive detect methods used in the detection.
In order to eliminate the malaria and protect the exported labour
from infecting malaria, more efforts should be focus on individual
protection measurements.
