Description
Manfred Accrombessi and co-authors published a trial protocol in 2026 for testing ways to deliver malaria prevention medicine to children leaving hospital in Benin. Children discharged after severe anemia or severe malaria often fall ill again or die in the weeks after. A preventive drug course after discharge cuts those risks and is now advised worldwide, but the best delivery route is unsettled.
Whole villages near two hospitals will be assigned by lot to different delivery and reminder schemes. The trial tracks course completion first, then readmissions, clinic visits, and deaths. It also probes how families and clinics judge each scheme. Results should guide programs across West Africa.
