This update for 2023 discusses the use of rectal artesunate as a pre-referral treatment for severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria. It reviews the results of various studies, including the CARAMAL project, which aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of this treatment in different African countries. The update highlights the challenges and limitations encountered, such as variations in health systems and mortality rates, incomplete treatment, and the potential for partial resistance to artesunate. The World Health Organization (WHO) provides recommendations for mitigating risks associated with this treatment. The intended audience includes healthcare professionals, policymakers, and researchers involved in malaria treatment and prevention.
