A retrospective evaluation of contributing causes of malaria among Danish travellers, based on patient files and telephone interviews, is presented. Four centres participated, and 33% of all malaria cases reported to the Danish authorities in 1993 and 1994 were included (in total 82 patients). Ten out of 52 patients with falciparum malaria had not taken any chemoprophylaxis at all. Among the 42 patients who had, only 14 were both correctly advised and fully compliant. Within the remaining 28 patients, lack of compliance concerning the chemoprophylaxis was reported in 16, inadequate chemoprophylaxis was prescribed to 12 patients, and a further eight (19%) were underdosed. Only four out of 30 patients with vivax, ovale or malariae malaria had not used chemoprophylaxis. The distribution of contributing causes of chemoprophylaxis failure was similar to that of falciparum malaria, although noncompliance was more predominant in patients developing vivax, ovale or malariae malaria (58% compared to 38% in falciparum malaria). |
