WELCOME

  PRESENTATION.

SCENARIO OF MALARIA IN ORISSA

• MALARIA - STILL A GIANT KILLER IN THIS 21ST
  CENTURY OF MEDICAL ADVANCEMENT.
• A REAL CAUSE OF SERIOUS CONCERN !!!!!!!!
• AS PER TIMES OF INDIA PUBLICATION
• ORISSA STILL TOPS THE LIST OF MALARIA DEATHS IN
  THE COUNTRY.
• MALARIA DEATHS IN 2002 03 ARE 465 AND 333
  RESPECTIVELY.
• NEARLY 45 OF TOTAL DEATHS IN THE COUNTRY, OCCUR
  IN ORISSA ONLY.
• ORISSA ALSO COMPRISES 25 OF THE TOTAL MALARIA
  CASES IN THE COUNTRY.
• IN 2003, THE ENTIRE ORISSA WAS IN GRIP OF DEADLY
  FALCIPARUM MALARIA WHICH IS ABOUT 85 OF TOTAL
  MALARIA CASES REPORTED.

• OUT OF 4.17 LAKH MALARIA CASES REPORTED, 3.46
  LAKH AFFECTED BY P.F
• EVEN OUR CHIEF MINISTER ON THE OCCASION OF
  NATIONAL MALARIA PREVENTION MONTH IN JUNE LAST
  EXPRESSED SERIOUS CONCERN OVER MALARIA DEATHS IN
  ORISSA.
• C.M FURTHER EMPHASIZED THAT MALARIA STILL NOT
  CONTROLLED AS PER EXPECTATION IN ORISSA DESPITE
  THE FACT THAT STATE GOVT. HAS ALREADY SPENT Rs.
  14 CRORE OVER A SPAN OF LAST 7 YEARS.
• SO, C.M. CALLED FOR IMMEDIATE STEPS TO CONTROL
  THIS DEADED DISEASE ON TOP PRIORITY.
• WORLD BANK SPONSORED ENHANCED MALARIA CONTROL
  PROJECT BEING IMPLEMENTED ALSO IN MOST OF THE
  DISTRICTS OF ORISSA

HOW QBC SYSTEM WORKS

• 55 65UL OF BLOOD IS TAKEN IN QBC TUBE PRECOATED
  INTERNALLY WITH ACRADINE ORANGE STAIN OTHER
  REAGENTS.
• CLOSURE IS ATTACHED AND A PRECISION FLOAT
  INSERTED BEFORE SPINNING THIS TUBE AT 12,000 RPM
  IN THE QBC CENTRIFUGE FOR 5 MINUTES.
• COMPONENTS OF BUFFY COAT SEPARATES BASED ON THEIR
  DENSITIES (WBC AT THE TOP RBC AT BOTTOM OF THE
  TUBE).

WHY QBC SYSTEM WORKS

• KEY TO THE SUCCESS OF THE QBC MALARIA TEST IS
  CONCENTRATION
• ON CENTRIFUGATION, ALL PARASITIZED RED BLOOD
  CELLS LOCATE VISIBLY IN A PREDICTABLE AREA OF THE
  QBC TUBE MAKING DETECTION EASY AND FAST.
• PARASITIZED RBC ARE LIGHTER IN DENSITY THAN
  NORMAL RBC SO THEY CONCENTRATE AT THE TOP OF THE
  RBC LAYER.

14

• PARASITES CONTAIN DNA WHICH TAKE UP THE ACRIDINE
  ORANGE STAIN AND APPEAR AS BRIGHT SPECK OF LIGHT
  AMONG NONFLUORESCING RED BLOOD CELLS.
• VIRTUALLY ALL PLASMODIA PRESENT IN 60UL OF BLOOD
  CAN BE EASILY VISUALISED AS ONE ROTATES THE QBC
  TUBE UNDER THE PARALENS.

15
HIGH SENSITIVITY

• STANDARD 65UL QBC TUBE CONTAINS NEARLY 500 TIMES
  THE VOLUME INSPECTED IN 100 FIELDS OF A THICK
  SMEAR.
• QBC TEST IS 100 TIMES MORE SENSITIVE FOR LOW
  LEVEL PARASITIMIA THAN THE THICK SMEAR.
• QBC MALARIA TEST CAN IDENTIFY ALL THE DIFFERENT
  SPECIES AND STAGES OF MALARIA LIKE PV, PF,
  P.MALARIE P.OVALE WITH STAGES LIKE
  TROPHOZOITES, GAMETOCYTES SCHIZONTS ETC.
• QUANTIFICATION OF PARASITEMIAS WITH SEVERITY OF
  INFECTIONS CAN BE KNOWN.
• QUALITATIVE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS.

BENEFITS OF QBC TECHNIQUE
CRITERIA CONVENTIONAL QBC BENEFITS
QUALITY OF BLOOD 4 5UL 55 65UL MORE BLOOD MORE PARASITES
USER TRAINING 8 16 WEEK ONE DAY EASY TO LEARN
STAINING REQUIRED PRECOATED TUBES USED EASY, FAST UNIFORM STAINING
PARASITE LOSS UPTO 40 PARASITE LOST DURING SLIDE PREPARATION NO LOSS OF PARASITE MORE SENSITIVE
SENSITIVITY 100 PARASITE PER 2UL 1 PARASITE PER 2UL 100 TIMES MORE SENSITIVE
CONCENTRATION PARASITES ARE SPREAD PARASITES ARE CONCENTRATED BY CENTRIFUGATION EASE OF DETECTION
READING TIME FOR NEGATIVES 8 10 MINUTES LESS THAN 1 MINUTE QUICKER AND FASTER
17
BENEFITS OF QBC MALARIA DETECTION SYSTEM

• FASTER AND ACCURATE DETECTION OF MALARIA PARASITE
  IN CAPILLARY AND VENOUS BLOOD NO FALSE NEGATIVE
  CASES.
• SPECIES IDENTIFICATION IS EASY, FAST AND
  ACCURATE.
• EARLY DETECTION OF LOW PARASITEMIA BOARDER LINE
  CASES.

18

• EASY DETECTION FOR PYREXIA OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN
  CASES.
• MANY LIVES CAN BE SAVED FROM DEADLY P. FALCIPARUM
  BY TIMELY AND SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS.
• SIDE EFFECTS OF LONG TERM TREATMENT OF ANTI
  MALARIAL DRUGS CAN BE MINIMISED.
• AND FINALLY, IT WILL HELP TO CONTROL THE MENACE
  OF DEADLY KILLER MALARIA TO A GREAT EXTENT.
• IT ALSO DETECTS MICRO FILARIA.

19
AS PER WORLD BANK NORM ONLY B-D QUALIFIES ALL THE
CRITERIAS

• B-D HAS DESIGNED QBC AND NOT COPIED.
• B-D HAS MORE THAN 15 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN
  MANUFACTURING QBC.
• B-D HAS ISO- 9001, U.S FDA AND CE CERTIFICATES
  FOR COMPLETE QBC SYSTEM.
• QBC SYSTEM USES UV RADIATION WHICH CAN BE
  HAZARDOUS FOR HUMAN EYES BUT OUR SYSTEM IS 100
  SAFE FOR THE END USERS AS IT IS APPROVED BY U.S
  FDA.
