I got hold of the results of NEQAS
survey 2503 PA today.
2503 PA1 – I wasn’t
convinced. I didn't say negative… but I’ve never found thick films easy. When I was first taught malaria
identification over forty years ago I was told how difficult it is to
distinguish between genuine parasites mangled by the cell lysis and cell debris
mangled by the cell lysis.
There was actually P.
falciparum in there – I shall have another look.
2503 PA2 – I saw P.
falciparum. I was right. I estimated a 1% parasitaemia; a parasitaemia wasn’t
reported
I'll take that .
