After adjusting for the restricted randomisation and clustered design this represented a 63% increase in care-seeking to the CHW, a result that just fell short of significance ( Table 5 , p = 0.085).

Our sensitivity analyses of the main outcome with alternative definitions of appropriate treatment [see Table B in S1 Text ] nonetheless produced similar results–of note, restricting cases of fever to those with a confirmed malaria test estimated a 20% improvement in appropriate treatment which remained highly significant.
Both showed a trend of improved coverage of overall appropriate treatment (20% an 14% improvement, p values 0.006 and 0.073 respectively for i) and ii)).
