Insecticide-treated baby wraps cut malaria in Ugandan infants by 65% over six months, offering daytime protection.
A large trial in rural Uganda found that insecticide-treated baby wraps reduced malaria cases in infants by 65% over six months, offering daytime protection when bed nets are ineffective.
The study, involving 400 babies aged 6 to 18 months, showed 34 cases in the permethrin group versus 94 in the control group, with only mild side effects reported.
Researchers say the low-cost, culturally appropriate intervention could be distributed during routine clinic visits, filling a critical gap in protecting young children, especially as progress with existing tools has stalled.
