Using Mobile Technology to Facilitate Reactive Case Detection of Malaria
نویسندگان
چکیده
Objective This presentation will share findings from more than three years of using mobile technology for reactive case detection (RACD) to help eliminate malaria in a well-defined geographic area. It will review the concepts of RACD, the application of mobile technology, lessons learned from more than three years of application, and considerations in applying this technology in other malaria elimination contexts.

Abstract Introduction: The use of mobile technology as mobile health is rapidly expanding to track and improve human health. The advent of smartphone technology alongside interactive displays has provided quick access, easy access, transmission and tracking information for patients and service providers. The patients can better manage and control their illness and health by using...
متن کاملA New Intrusion Detection System to deal with Black Hole Attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
By extending wireless networks and because of their different nature, some attacks appear in these networks which did not exist in wired networks. Security is a serious challenge for actual implementation in wireless networks. Due to lack of the fixed infrastructure and also because of security holes in routing protocols in mobile ad hoc networks, these networks are not protected against attack...
متن کاملEvaluation of Microscopy Sensitivity, Specificity in Detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, Using Monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira, Sudan
Background: Malaria is still account for 200 million cases annually. Microscopy is the gold standard technique for malaria parasites detection. PCR-based techniques can detect malaria infections with high sensitivity. The study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of microscopy technique in the detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, using monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira State, Central Sudan. Met...

Background Prompt and effective case detection and treatment are vital components of the malaria case management strategy as malaria-endemic countries implement the testing, treating and tracking policy. The implementation of this policy in public and formal private sectors continue to receive great attention while the informal private retail sector (mostly the patent and propriety medicine ven...
متن کاملProposing A Distributed Model For Intrusion Detection In Mobile Ad-Hoc Network Using Neural Fuzzy Interface
Security term in mobile ad hoc networks has several aspects because of the special specification of these networks. In this paper a distributed architecture was proposed in which each node performed intrusion detection based on its own and its neighbors’ data. Fuzzy-neural interface was used that is the composition of learning ability of neural network and fuzzy Ratiocination of fuzzy system as...
