Summary

To date, the underlying causes of community-acquired fever, particularly non-malarial fever, are insufficiently documented in Guinea. Moreover, diagnostic capacity is limited, leading to inadequate prescription of antibiotics and antimalarials, as well as substantial delay in outbreak recognition. Thus, the investigators undertook a prospective observational multi-centric cohort study of febrile patients presenting at the emergency and outpatient department of selected health centers, districts and regional hospitals in four ecologically distinct sentinel health districts in Guinea.
