Intermittent preventive treatment or placebo was given over a six month-period spanning peak malaria transmission season, followed by a 12- month post intervention surveillance period. Cross-sectional surveys were performed 1 month (November 2005), 6 months (April 2006) and 12 months (November 2006) after the intervention was stopped. Blood films and filter paper samples were collected at these three time points.
