Past ExperiencePast Experience
One of worst ID pathogens in world, clearly expanding range and increasing prevalence
Objective of WHO eradication campaign in 1950’s-60’s, and became one of most impressive public health defeats ever
Target of current “Roll Back Malaria” initiative, in face of resurgence

Annual incidence of 100 to 300 million cases
About 1.5 to 2.7 million deaths per year from malaria

Malaria EpidemiologyMalaria Epidemiology
Endemicity measured by percentage of 2 to 9 y.o. with splenomegaly or parasitemia– Hypoendemic - 0-10%– Mesoendemic - 10-50%– Hyperendemic - 50-75%– Holoendemic - over 75%

EpidemiologyEpidemiology
More than 90% of all malaria cases are in sub-Saharan Africa. Two-thirds of the remainder are concentrated in six countries -- India, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Colombia and Solomon Islands, in decreasing order of prevalence.

Clinical PresentationClinical Presentation
The classic flu-like illness Commonly mistaken for influenza, other URI,
travelers' diarrhea, viral hepatitis, or encephalitis Fever, headache, muscle and joint aches,
abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc. Anyone coming from endemic area must be
considered to have malaria until proven otherwise Main reason it’s missed – no travel history taken

Management of Severe Management of Severe MalariaMalaria
A Few PointsA Few Points Exchange transfusion - controversial Fluid balance
– avoid pulm edema or azotemia (dialysis in severe overload, acidosis, electrolyte changes)
Watch for Gram - sepsis and pneumonia Monitor serum glucose Aggressive antiseizure therapy Intubation may be necessary

Babesia InfectionsBabesia Infections
Mostly US illness, transmitted by deer ticks NE US (Martha’s Vinyard), WI, CA, WA Incubation 1-4 weeks Illness of fever, myalgias, anemia, hematuria,
jaundice – many with minimal or no sx Worse in splenectomized/compromised patients Diagnose with blood smear or PCR; Ab levels
may dx, but usually low during acute infection (variants like WA-1 will not react with CDC test)

Babesia TherapyBabesia Therapy
Clindamycin 300-600 mg IV q6 plus quinine 650 mg po q8
For less severe infection, may give clinda 600 mg po q8 + quinine
Atovaquone + azithromycin may be effective
Most antimalarials may no effect
