The priority would be on effectively and ensuring complete treatment of the
cases reported at health facilities. This will require directly observed
treatment and follow-up of cases with treatment cards for each patient and
maintaining individual treatment boxes. Weekly analysis of the reported
cases will identify the disease “hot spots” in each district where active cases
search will be undertaken by the kala-azar technical supervisors who
working in tandem with the ASHA community volunteers will undertake
community mobilization activities to identify new cases as well as help in
eliminating the breeding places for sand fly and improve community
compliance for indoor residual spray operations and ensure quality of the
spray operations. This will be done under the guidance and supervision of
the district Kala-azar co-ordinator.
