“Referral patterns and associated factors among adult patients admitted with Severe Malaria at Shedeho Meket Primary Hospital, Northeast Ethiopia”

This study showed that even in fewer areas where malaria is prevalent, severe malaria is a substantial burden, necessitating greater attention. The study observed most of the WHO severity indicators, with the exception of jaundice, convulsion, and pulmonary edema. The significant associations between severe anemia, significant bleeding, and hyperparasitemia with referral decisions highlight the importance of early detection and intervention.
