La page intitulée « Paludisme » sur le site des Guides médicaux de Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) fournit des directives cliniques détaillées pour le diagnostic, le traitement et la prévention du paludisme, en particulier dans les contextes humanitaires et les zones à ressources limitées.... Elle décrit les différentes espèces de Plasmodium responsables de la maladie, les symptômes cliniques associés aux formes simples et sévères, les méthodes de diagnostic telles que les tests rapides et la microscopie, ainsi que les protocoles thérapeutiques adaptés à chaque situation, y compris pour les populations vulnérables comme les enfants et les femmes enceintes. La page aborde également les stratégies de prévention, notamment l'utilisation de moustiquaires imprégnées d'insecticide et la chimioprévention saisonnière dans les zones à transmission élevée. Ces recommandations sont basées sur les lignes directrices de l'Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) et l'expérience de MSF sur le terrain.

La page du site VIDAL intitulée « Paludisme : traitement – Recommandations » présente les recommandations actuelles pour la prise en charge du paludisme. Elle détaille les différents traitements selon le type de paludisme (P. falciparum ou non), la gravité de l'infection (simple ou sévère...) et le contexte (enfants, femmes enceintes, zones de résistance). Elle aborde également les protocoles de traitement, les médicaments recommandés (comme l'artéméther-luméfantrine ou l'atovaquone-proguanil), ainsi que les précautions à prendre en cas d’automédication ou de voyage en zone endémique.

Efficacious antimalarial medicines are critical to malaria control and elimination. Continuous monitoring of their efficacy is needed to inform treatment policies in malaria-endemic countries, and to ensure early detection of, and response to, drug resistance.
Pour combattre et éliminer le paludisme, il est essentiel de disposer de médicaments antipaludiques efficaces. Un suivi régulier de l’efficacité des médicaments s’impose pour orienter les politiques de traitement dans les pays d’endémie palustre et assurer la détection précoce de la ph...armacorésistance et une intervention rapide.

The Social and Behaviour Change Communication (SBCC) Strategy for the Prevention of the Re-establishment of Malaria Transmission in Timor-Leste forms part of the National Strategic Plan (NSP) for 2021–2025. The strategy aims to support Timor-Leste's efforts to sustain malaria elimination by promot...ing responsive and preventive behaviours through targeted communication and community engagement. Created in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, the WHO, the Global Fund and other stakeholders, the SBCC strategy implements recommendations from the 2020 external review of the National Malaria Programme. Building on previous BCC initiatives (2015–2020), it emphasises surveillance, diagnosis, treatment and vector control, particularly focusing on vulnerable populations. The SBCC strategy provides partners and implementers with a dynamic guide to designing context-specific communication interventions that support malaria elimination and prevent the re-establishment of transmission.

In 2023, Breakthrough ACTION and Guyana’s Ministry of Health refined the 'Lil Mosquito, Big Problem' malaria campaign using human-centred design. Phase II introduced peer-led videos (Miners' Buzz), community champions, incentives for volunteer testers and a transport network to improve supply deli...very. These efforts enhanced engagement, coordination and timely reporting, reaching over 7,800 people. The campaign's innovative, community-driven approach has improved malaria prevention in remote mining regions.

Mozambique was the first country outside of the Sahel to successfully implement seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) on a large scale. This learning paper captures some of the lessons drawn from the implementation process.
Moçambique foi o primeiro país fora da região do Sahel a expandir com sucesso a quimioprevenção sazonal da malária (QSM). Neste documento de aprendizagem, descrevemos as lições decorrentes da aplicação em larga escala da QSM em Moçambique.
Where malaria transmission is seasonal, notably in Africa’s Sahel region, children of all ages most at risk of severe malaria are protected through SMC. This intervention consists of full antimalarial treatment courses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and amodiaquine (SPAQ), administered monthly (28 d...ays) during the high-transmission period (typically the rainy season), generally for up to five months per year. SMC can be deployed relatively easily across a large population and is highly cost-effective at only USD $0.30-0.40/dose,3 making it an important tool for malaria control

WHO recommends artemisinin-based combination therapies for treating uncomplicated malaria, alongside studies to monitor treatment effectiveness. Given the threat of antimalarial resistance, including partial resistance in several African countries, molecular tools are vital for tracking resistance. ...In 2015, WHO launched the External Quality Assessment scheme for nucleic acid amplification testing to ensure reliable lab results. Coordinated by WHO and operated by the United Kingdom National External Quality Assessment Service for Parasitology, the scheme provides quality-controlled specimens and reports to help improve testing accuracy. Experts recently discussed expanding the scheme to include antimalarial resistance markers.
