Figure 2From: Survival and haematological recovery of children with severe malaria transfused in accordance to WHO guidelines in Kilifi, KenyaPost discharge haemoglobin recovery in children with severe malaria according to presence or absence of parasitaemia at follow up. Children with malaria parasitaemia at follow-up had similar mean haemoglobins to those without parasitaemia at admission and discharge. However, the mean haemoglobins at one month follow-up were higher in those without parasitaemia (10.5 g/dL) than those with parasitaemia (8.8 g/dL) (p = 0.001).Back to article page
