Description The malaria TRaC survey and the malaria parasite prevalence study among high-risk rural villagers provided: 1. a baseline estimate of malaria parasite prevalence rate; 2. a baseline estimate of the proportion of people in intervention villages that are using Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs); 3. an understanding of the key determinants of net use, i.e., the opportunity, ability and motivation (OAM) of respondents to use nets; as well as the population characteristics that determine use. Study findings then guide the implementation and monitoring of PSI Laos' malaria reduction program PSI Laos conducted the baseline malaria TRaC/parasite prevalence survey in September-December 2008.
