Malaria Consortium supports delivery of seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) to children ages 3-59 months using sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine plus amodiaquine. Lot quality assurance sampling (LQAS) was adapted as a cost-efficient method for end-of-cycle SMC monitoring surveys across supported countries and an implementation challenges reporting system was established in Nigeria. We present a case study of its application in Nasarawa State. LQAS facilitated timely local performance assessment across 16 indicators. Development of new reporting tools has played a key role in stimulating national-level discussions on improvements to SMC supervisory processes and implementer training and provided a framework for engagement with local stakeholders.
疟疾联盟支持使用磺胺多辛-乙胺嘧啶加阿莫地喹为 3-59 月龄儿童提供季节性疟疾化学预防(SMC)。整群抽样质量保证(LQAS)被改编为一种在受支持国家进行 SMC 监测调查的具有成本效益的方法,并在尼日利亚建立了实施挑战报告系统。我们介绍了在纳萨拉瓦州的应用案例。LQAS 便于及时对 16 项指标进行本地绩效评估。新报告工具的开发在促进关于改进 SMC 监督流程和执行者培训的国家层面讨论方面发挥了关键作用,并为与地方利益相关者接触提供了框架。
