Abstract

To investigate and analyze the capabilities of Plasmodium microscopic examinations in medical and health organizations in Dongxihu District, Wuhan City, so as to provide evidences for achieving the standard of malaria elimination and malaria control in the future. The basic information of the laboratorians and the hardware facilities in 15 microscopic examination stations of Plasmodium were collected and analyzed from 2010 to 2015. Meanwhile, the quality of making, dyeing, cleanliness of all the negatives blood smears were evaluated, and all the positive smears were re-checked in the district during the period above mentioned. Totally, there were 28 laboratorians and 9 qualified microscopes in 15 microscopy stations in Dongxihu District. The age of the laboratorians in the first-level and third-level organizations was mainly from 40 to 50 years old, but the age of those in the second-level organizations was from 20 to 30 years old. The years for microscopic examination working of most of the laboratorians in the first-level and third-level organizations were more than 15 years, while the working years of those in the second-level organizations were mainly less than 10 years. The education level of the laboratorians in the first...Continue Reading
