42	Measures taken by parents to prevent malaria Dihno, Anastazia Emil 02 1900 (has links) A quantitative, explorative, descriptive contextual study was conducted to determine to what extent the malaria control measures proposed by the Tanzanian government had been implemented by parents of children between the ages 0-5 years who lived in Bukumbi village. Structured interviews were conducted with 40 parents of children who had been admitted for malaria treatment during 2007, and the data analysed by computer. Although respondents had a basic knowledge of preventive measures they did not implement actions preventing the anopheles mosquitoes’ breeding in this tropical area. The vicious cycle of poverty, malaria episodes and lack of proper malaria health education hampered the implementation of control measures such as the spraying of houses with insecticides. Although the government of Tanzania subsidises insecticide treated bed nets the respondents did not maintain these nets and did not renew the insecticide treatment of these nets. The incidence of malaria is unlikely to decline in the Bukumbi village unless all identified factors are addressed. / Health Studies / M.A. Environmental control Malaria Tanzania Malaria morbidity Mortality rates Mosquito net 614.5320967827 Malaria Malaria -- Mortality -- Tanzania Child care -- Tanzania -- Bukumbi Parenting -- Tanzania -- Bukumbi Rural health services -- Tanzania Preventive health services -- Tanzania Health education -- Tanzania --Bukumb Bukumbi (Tanzania)-- Rural conditions
