Abstract

Despite significant efforts made to control malaria in Ethiopia, the disease remains one of the top pub lic health problems in the country. Baseline malaria prevalence and associated factor at high malaria area is important to guide malaria control interventions, there was paucity of information regarding the study area. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine prevalence of malaria and associated factors among febrile adults in Siraro district health facilities, West Arsi Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia.

Description

Facility-based cross-sectional study assessing malaria prevalence and associated factors among febrile adults.All febrile adults under the catchment area and randomly 
selected febrile adult patients who visited Siraro district public health facilities during the study period were the source and study population of our study. Sample size for the first objective was determined using a formula for a single population proportion (n= (Zα/2)2 *p (1 − p)/d2) 
by considering the following assumptions: prevalence 
of malaria in East Showa, Ethiopia, which was 25% [14], 
d = 5% marginal error and CI = 95% confidence interval 
(z = 1.96). In addition, a non- response rate was consid
ered with 10% final sample size = 317.
