Strategy to control and eradicate dengue hemorrhagic fever vectors in Bali

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever cases in Bali have increased in the past decade. Control and eradication efforts must be optimized. In order to create dengue-free zones, accurate information and a comprehensive strategy for accelerating dengue vector management are required. This paper is based on empirical, field, and epidemiological studies and program evaluations guided by the health belief model approach. In this regard, Bali's lesson on dengue cases fluctuated from 2018 to 2020. The incidence and death rates are increasing, especially during the COVID-19. Many factors affect the disease agent, the host, and the environment. The SIGAP strategy is a policy brief that is studied and implemented to accelerate dengue vector control in Bali, which includes: awareness of the importance of 4M-Plus (draining, closing, reusing used goods, and monitoring) and mosquito nest control; integration of dengue information services; using natural insecticides and larvicides; observing and reporting the presence of vectors to the larva monitoring officer; and regular monitoring weekly. Implementing the SIGAP strategy can reduce dengue vectors and speed up the process of getting rid of dengue disease in Bali.

Trends and Research Hotspots of Knockdown Resistance in the Aedes Genus in Indonesia: A Bibliometric Surveillance from the Scopus Database

“…In recent years, mosquito-borne diseases have emerged as a significant threat to public health worldwide, including in Indonesia [4]. The increase in the incidence of these diseases has been attributed to favorable climatic and resource conditions [25][26][27][28]. This increasing trend has raised concerns for policymakers, particularly in light of reports on knockdown resistance (kdr) in certain parts of Indonesia.…”

“…Second, vector control strategies aimed at controlling mosquito-borne diseases, particularly those caused by the genus Aedes, have been the primary focus of related research. Alternative approaches to conventional insecticides, such as biological control methods, Wolbachia-based interventions, and new mosquito repellents, will continue to evolve and be further investigated [4,25,40]. Third, it is crucial to consider geographical variation when designing region-specific interventions, considering local cultures, customs, and habits.…”

Evaluation of one-house one-larvae observer program in controlling dengue hemorrhagic fever in Central Sulawesi

“…SIGAP strategy that involves the community's active role. This strategy integrates DHF information services, the use of natural pesticides, activating the role of jumantik, and regular weekly larvae monitoring, although its future implementation also requires evaluation [22]. Cross-sectoral cooperation efforts in mosquito eradication efforts are still needed [13].…”

The influence of SYRIZA-ANEL Greek health policies on hospital efficiency

“…The aims of HPs vary among different governments, namely: some governments try to develop the patient care system on a community level, take for example the home rehabilitation program for stroke patients [ 4 ]. Some try to deal with diseases through human development policies in the health sector [ 5 ], while others try to control and eradicate disease by creating disease-free zones, compiling accurate information and applying comprehensive strategies to accelerate disease management [ 6 ]. Greek HPs influence the inputs and outputs selected for a hospital efficiency study and a change in efficiency values of Greek hospitals [ 7 ].…”
