Abstract: Objective To understand the malaria epidemic situation in Huai’an City in 2014, so as to provide the evidence for formulating and adjusting effective strategies and measures to eliminate malaria. Methods The reported malaria cases from the Internet Reporting System and the epidemiological data of malaria of Huai’an City in 2014 were collected and analyzed statistically. Results A total of 56 malaria cases were reported in Huai’an City in 2014 with the incidence of 0.12/10 000, and 43.59%of increasing rate compared with the previous year (39 cases). All these cases were imported from African countries. There were 50 cases of Plasmodium falciparum, 4 cases of P. ovale,1 case of P. malariae and 1 case of mixed infections. All of the patients were male and the average age was 44 years. Totally 96.43% of the patients (54 cases) were peasants and 69.64% of them (39 cases) only received junior high school education. The distribution of malaria cases was concentrated in Huai’an District (32 cases), Xuyi County (8 cases) and Huaiyin District (6 cases), totally accounting for 82.14%. There was no significant seasonal variation in the reporting time of the cases. The median time from onset to seeing a doctor was 2 days and the median time from seeing a doctor to being diagnosed was 1 day. Totally 16.67% of the patients (8 cases) were misdiagnosed when they first visited a doctor. All the patients were laboratory confirmed and all of them received the standard treatment after diagnosis. Conclusions There were no local malaria cases reported from Huai’an City in the last three years. However, the situation of imported malaria is more serious and the species of infected plasmodium are more diverse. Therefore, to accomplish the aim of eliminating malaria in the whole city, it is necessary to further strengthen the multi?sectoral cooperation, health education, malaria screening and professional training to control the imported malaria.
