Analysis of care-seeking pathways and factors influencing early and appropriate care-seeking for malaria patients in the Republic of Guinea: a cross-sectional study
A low rate of early and appropriate care-seeking was observed. Patients sought care through multiple means, often resulting in a delay in adequate management. The results show the need to deploy strategies adapted to the needs of communities.
