Background: Presumptive and test-based are the two main approaches for management and treatment of Malaria. The presumptive approach relies solely on clinical signs and symptoms to establish diagnosis while the test-based approach depends on laboratory investigation and confirmation. This study compared the use of rapid diagnostic test kit of fever to diagnose and manage Malaria during pre-rainy season (PRE-RS) and post-rainy season (POST-RS).
