5. In what ways can operational research guide and promote case management in malaria elimination, including diagnosis and the use of antimalarial drugs? Every aspect of diagnosis and treatment needs operational research e.g rational drug use, physicians compliance, patients compliance, private sector involvement, sensitivity tests. Patient adherence to treatment, health care seeking behavior.
