Cek Silang Mikroskopis Sediaan Darah Malaria pada Monitoring Pengobatan Dihidroartemisinin-Piperakuin Di Kalimantan dan Sulawesi (Cross-checking Malaria Smears in Monitoring Dyhydroartemisinin-piperakuin in Kalimantan an Sulawesi)
Quality assurance of malaria microscopy is an important issue in health service and health research for a better case management. In monitoring Dyhydroartemisinin-Piperaquine, quality assurance was a part of this research activities at sentinel sites in Kalimantan and Sulawesi. This activity was carried out to confirmed diagnosis of malaria cases that could be analysed, and to evaluate the skill of microscopists to be improved in the future. Quality assurance was assessed based on the results of cross-checking malaria smears which done blindly by certified microscopist from Laboratory of Parasitology ,National Institute of Health Research and Development, The quality of smears were mostly good, however the error rate was still high (10.9%). Therefore, a better and continuing planning and strategiy is needed to improve and mantain the quality of skill microscopists
