Abstract
P. falciparum malaria in pregnancy was evaluated using histidine-rich proteins-2 RDT and related to HIV infection and hematologic parameters. Prevalence of malaria, HIV and anemia were 19.7%, 3.1% and 17.2% respectively. Primigravidae were significantly more infected with malaria. Malaria was not significantly associated with anemia, blood group, genotype and HIV infection.
