Abstract

Malaria has continued to be a major public health problem in HORMOZGAN province and in spite of various methods conducted to suppress the disease, such as residual spraying, application of larvicides and modification of the environment, the cases are increasing. This increase maybe due to some technical and operational problems and to the development of the vectors resistance. This retrospective (cross-sectional) study was carried out to assess the epidemiological characteristics of MALARIA in HORMOZGAN province during 1995-1999. In order to do this, all the MALARIA patients who referred to the health centers of the province were examined. Results showed that 38082 cases were identified to be positive during these five years. The highest number of patients and the lowest number of them were reported in 1995 (13757 cases) and in 1999 (1521 cases), respectively.
In 1995 the Annual Parasite Incidence rate (API) was 7031 per thousand while in 1999 it reduced to 403. The Annual Blood Examination Rate (ABER) in 1995 and 1999 were 99.3% and 92.3% respectively.
Out of seven possible carriers of MALARIA, five types has been reported from HORMOZGAN province namely Anopheles stephensi, An. Fluviatilis, An. Culicifacies, An. Superpictus and Andethali. On the whole, the results showed a decrease in the incidence rate of MALARIA during the recent years.
