Abstract: In 2007, there were 1505 cases of malaria reported in the US and its territories. Except for one transfusion-related case, all cases in 2007 were imported. Almost all of the imported malaria cases could have been prevented with appropriate malaria prophylactic drug regimens. Achieving appropriate malaria prophylaxis requires knowledge and action by both the traveler and healthcare provider (HCP). There are limited studies on HCP knowledge and practices regarding malaria prophylaxis. We propose an activity to better define the types of HCPs giving pre-travel advice about malaria, their knowledge gaps regarding malaria, their sources of information about malaria, and their barriers to appropriate prescription of malaria prophylaxis. Knowledge and practices of malaria prevention among US travelers who develop malaria and sources of information for malaria prevention will also be examined. All US travelers with malaria reported in 2009-2010 and their healthcare providers (if one was seen) who provided pre-travel advice will be interviewed. Univariate analysis will be done to describe characteristics of HCPs who give inappropriate prescriptions for malaria prophylaxis. Bivariate and multivariate analysis is planned to examine the association between various HCP characteristics and provision of inappropriate (or no) malaria prophylaxis. Findings from this activity will help CDC's malaria branch with the development and targeting of educational materials for HCPs regarding malaria in travelers. Information gathered will also guide content of educational and review articles to be published in journals most often read by target HCPs.
