FALCIPARUM MALARIA IN VIETNAM: CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS AND NURSING CARE REQUIREMENTS

Abstract

This exploratory study has described the observed clinical manifestations and nursing care requirements of 50 patients with P. falicparum malaria in the Republic of South Vietnam. Based upon the observations and findings, possible suggestive areas for study were identified. The significance of the malaria problem to our present military commitment imposes urgency upon the need for expanding our current research efforts. Because of the complexity of this problem, it calls for an intra-disciplinary approach, not only in the clinical area, but also in the laboratory.
