Malaria is a potential medical emergency and should be treated immediately because delays in diagnosis and treatment are the leading causes of death in many countries.
This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice related to malaria diagnosis for early detection among healthcare workers in the laboratories of hospitals in Thailand.
The design of the study was a descriptive cross-sectional study carried out between January 2016 and March 2017 at 11 hospitals in Thailand.
The interviewees included any scientists who were currently working in a medical laboratory.
Mean scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice for each healthcare group were calculated and compared between groups.
Data analysis was performed using the SPSS version 11.5 software package (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).
Among a total of 118 healthcare workers, most of the healthcare workers had fair to good knowledge, attitude, and practice related to malaria detection.
Among the various positions of healthcare workers, medical technologists possessed a greater knowledge on malaria detection than medical technician assistants or laboratory assistants (X2 = 9.822, d.f.
= 2, and P value=0.007).
This study infers that knowledge, attitude, and practice related to malaria detection among healthcare workers in laboratories were adequate.
However, some points of knowledge and practice must be updated.
There is a very urgent need to update knowledge on malaria, especially about the number of Plasmodium species causing relapse in malaria patients.
In addition, there is an urgent need to update the practice related to malaria detection, especially about the staining process for early detection of malaria.
