Until now evaluation of ITPS has been limited to small scale entomological testing in scientifically controlled environment 'entomological platforms' in Asian and 'experimental huts' in rural African settings (Refer to Citation Section). Before any novel control tool can go forward for recommendation by the WHO, or be used routinely in humanitarian crises, clear demonstration of impact on malaria morbidity in emergency refugee settings is essential. A Phase III field evaluation was therefore conducted to evaluate the impact of ITPS on malaria incidence in young children in an area of intense transmission. A unique feature of this trial was its setting - a true emergency - in two newly built refugee camps for Liberian refugees displaced to Sierra Leone. The findings offer insight into the effectiveness of ITPS when used in a scenario for which it was purposefully designed.
