433570 Indicator:Total number of  malaria cases (presumed + confirmed cases)   Definition: Malaria cases (presumed and confirmed) from all reporting sectors (public/private/community) throughout the country. Confirmed cases are malaria cases in which the parasite has been detected in a diagnostic test i.e microscopy, RDT or molecular diagnostic test. Presumed cases are cases suspected of being malaria that are not confirmed by a diagnostic test. Method of measurement: Data submitted by the national malaria control programmes (NMCPs) compiled by WHO. Method of calculation: Confirmed cases used were reported through the laboratory, unless indicated by the country that confirmed cases should be used from the outpatient register owing to incomplete or inaccurate laboratory data. Confirmed cases were corrected for double counting of microscopy and RDT where the exact number of double counted cases was known. Confirmed cases include indigenous, imported, introduced, relapsing and recrudescent cases, as well as all species, including non-human malaria P. knowlesi. Presumed cases are reported from the outpatient register. Total cases are the sum of confirmed and presumed cases.
