The Medical Clinics of North America
William O Hahn, Paul S Pottinger

Abstract

Malaria is the clinical syndrome when a patient experiences symptoms in response to infection with one of several strains of the Plasmodium parasite. This article is intended for health care providers to become familiar with some of the basics of care of patients who are travelling to or returning from an area with ongoing malaria transmission. The specific focus is on patients from nonendemic areas who plan on travel for a finite period to an area where malaria is endemic.
