INTRODUCTION
Cholera is an acute intestinal infection caused by ingestion of food or water
contaminated with the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It has a short incubation
period, from less than one day to five days, and produces an enterotoxin that
causes copious, painless, watery diarrhoea that can quickly lead to severe
dehydration and death if treatment is not promptly given. Vomiting also occurs
in most patients. (WHO, 2006) In refugee populations, attack rates up to 6%
with case-fatality ratios (CFR) approaching 25% have occurred. Higher CFRs
have been found when protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is prevalent.
Cholera, however, is highly treatable and less than 1% of cholera patients will
die if appropriate case-management is used. Cholera deaths are almost
exclusively due to fluid and electrolyte loss. Providing early outreach and
treatment through traditional ORS replacements will significantly improve the
outcome of a cholera epidemic. Although early case identification and
appropriate case management is necessary to reduce the CFR, identifying
sources of infection and designing control measures are necessary to reduce the
magnitude of a cholera epidemic

Reinforce surveillance
Laboratory confirmation for Vibrio Cholerae
Stool swabs should be transported to the laboratory in Cary-Blair transport
medium. Stool culture is the gold standard for diagnosis of cholera but takes at
least a few days before results are known
Rapid tests are quick and easily done by non-technical staff, Rapid tests are
useful especially when outbreaks are suspected. These are available in small
numbers in all hospital laboratories.
Resources needed:
Rectal swabs, Cary-Blair (Cary-Blair will be made at the CDC supported
laboratory in Hagadera and distributed to all centres that are handling
cholera cases)
Screw-top tubes of Cary-Blair media (estimates: 80 tubes should be
maintained by each health agency and kept in the cholera stock)
Dry, cotton-tipped rectal swab (estimate: 200 applicators-moisten in
sterile Cary-Blair media before inserting into anus.)
3
Designated cold chain for culture transport (estimate: 6) and an adequate
number of ice packs. The cholera kit should consist of at least one cold
box (e.g. vaccine carrier) and four ice packs.
Readily available communication to Hagadera laboratory for
communication of results.
Cholera can be isolated from these stool samples up to 5-7 days later if kept
cool. Although cholera specimens do not require constant refrigeration during
transport, specimens should be sent in designated EPI cold packs. Vibrio
cholera should be isolated on TCBS media and serotyping should be done.
Samples should be transported as soon possible after collection to Hagadera
laboratory. Samples should be collected as soon as possible and before
administration of antibiotics for eligible patients. They should then be sent to a
designated focal person (Name to be communicated during a suspected
outbreak) at the Hagadera laboratory. Samples should be kept under
refrigeration. This designated person will be responsible for tracking of samples
and reporting results to the submitting Camp.
The CDC supported laboratory in Hagadera is located on the premises of the
IRC hospital in Hagadera. The laboratory in Hagadera will send samples to the
Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) for quality control. Tel. 2722541,
KEMRI is located in Kenyatta National Hospital
PART I. ABOUT CHOLERA
Etiology of cholera
Cholera is caused by a bacterium called Vibrio Cholerae. There are more that
60 species of cholera bacteria however recent infections in Africa have been
caused by El Tor biotype of Vibrio cholerae serogroup 01.
Case definition
Suspected cholera case:
– When cholera is not known to be present : Severe dehydration or
death from acute watery diarrhoea in a patient aged 5 years or
more
– When cholera is epidemic: Acute watery diarrhea, with or without
vomiting in a patient aged 2 years or more
Confirmed cholera cases: A case of cholera is confirmed when Vibrio cholerae
O1 or O139 is isolated from any patient with diarrhoea
An outbreak is declared when one case of cholera is confirmed by laboratory
culture and isolation of Vibrio cholera
4
Case notification
When cholera is suspected the CDC Surveillance Officer
ATepo@kemricdc.org and tepoak@yahoo.com and UNHCR Senior Public
Health Officer (burton@unhcr.org) and Health Coordinator
(amisiw@unhcr.org) should be notified simultaneously. A suspected cholera
outbreak may be declared while awaiting laboratory confirmation
Once a case of cholera is confirmed then the local health authority (Provincial
Surveillance Focal Person) should be notified.
Clinical Presentation
Most cholera infections are asymptomatic or mild, and indistinguishable from
other mild diarrhea. In its severe form the following signs and symptoms
characterize cholera:
Onset is typically sudden
Diarrhea is profuse, painless and watery with flecks of mucus in the
stool (rice water stools). The presence of blood in the stool is not
characteristic of cholera, and absence of rice water stool does not
exclude cholera
Vomiting may occur (usually early in the illness)
Majority of patients are afebrile, children are more likely to be febrile
than adults,
Dehydration occurs rapidly (up to 1000 ml/hour of diarrhea may be
produced)
Most complications results from effects of loss of fluids and electrolytes
in the stool; and vomiting, muscle cramps, acidosis, peripheral
vasoconstriction and ultimately renal and circulatory failure, arrythmias
and death may occur if treatment is not given on time.
Mode of transmission
Vibrio Cholerae is spread mainly via the faecal-oral route. Some of the best
known sources of infections are as follows
Drinking water that has been contaminated at its source, during storage,
or usage
Contaminated foods e.g. vegetables that have been fertilized with human
excreta (night soil) or freshened with contaminated water
Soiled hands can also contaminate clean drinking water and foods
5
Since case fatality in cholera is largely determined by the urgency and the
adequacy of diarrhoeal management practices, prior training and continued
supervision of health workers in the assessment of diarrhea cases and the
promotion and use of ORT and continued feeding during diarrhea illness are
essential. It is therefore essential to educate all health workers regarding cholera
and to create an awareness of possible cholera cases. All hospitals, clinics,
mobile health teams and field workers such as CHWs must be retrained in
cholera outbreak management.
PART II. EPIDEMIC PREPAREDNESS
Routine Control of diarrhoeal diseases
A strong programme of control of diarrhoeal diseases is the best preparation
for the cholera epidemic. The health care system in Dadaab should strengthen
mechanisms of controlling diarrhoeal diseases at all the levels of care. These
mechanisms will enable health care providers to identify cholera, manage
patients, and report case.
Practical points:
The community should be educated about sources of contamination and
ways to avoid infection. This should be done regularly through the
routine health education sessions and/or community outreach by
CHWs.
Pay particular attention to sanitation by randomly inspecting sanitation
facilities especially in densely populated areas where lack of good
sanitation may lead to contamination of water sources. This may be done
by WASH members of the team
High priority should be given to observing the basic principles of
sanitary human waste disposal and particularly the protection of water
sources
Basic hygiene involving thorough hand washing following contact with
excreta and before handling food and eating should be encouraged for
adults, and infants. The hygiene promotion team members should
encourage this practice in the blocks
Training Needs
1. Case Management for health care workers and community health
workers (to be organized and conducted by each health agency)
6
2. Water quality: for community health workers and newly recruited
personnel during the outbreak (to be organized and/or conducted
by CARE)
3. Cholera testing procedures: for laboratory personnel and health
care workers, this should include the correct procedures for
collecting rectal swabs (to be organized and/or conducted by
CDC)
4. Infection prevention: for health care workers, community health
workers and community leaders (to be organized by health
agencies in conjunction with UNHCR)
5. Hygiene Promotion: for community health workers and
community leaders. This training should include safe water
handling, sanitary waste disposal, food handling and body
management during a cholera outbreak. (to be organized by
Oxfam)
6. Disease Surveillance: for health care workers, WASH agencies
workers, community health workers. (to be organized by CDC)
Water and Sanitation
In long term, improvements of safe water supply and adequate sanitation are
the best means of preventing cholera. Where water supply is at risk of
contamination, households should be taught the necessity and the techniques
of sanitizing water at home. Chlorination of water at source is already done in
Dadaab. During an epidemic the need to rehcloriabte at household level will be
assessed. In that case chlorine tablets will be distributed by Care and Oxfam to
households in the affected areas.
PART III: CHOLERA OUTBREAK
When an initial cholera case is detected in the community, the person should
be brought to the health post/hospital immediately. Treatment with ORS at
community level should be started while waiting further assessment.
Stool for cultures should be obtained at the first opportunity. Specimens
should be taken before antibiotics are given
A line listing should be established at the time the first patient presents.
During an outbreak active case finding should be activated through community
health workers, hygiene promoters, community leaders.
7
I. Public awareness and health education
In an outbreak the best control measures are early detection of cases and
prompt treatment of patients. Multi-sectoral teams will be established to
actively find cases of suspected cholera in the population. This can improve the
early case detection, the implementation of appropriate control measures, limit
the transmission of the disease and reduce case fatality. The community should
be informed and encouraged to report suspected cholera cases promptly. In
addition the following will be done;
Develop appropriate communication strategies and engage the
community – Filmaid
Intensify the free flow of information to avoid panic in the community –
CHW
Health education activities for community members
- wash vegetables and fruits in clean water before use or peel
- keep food covered to prevent contamination by flies
- cook food thoroughly and eat it while still hot
- prevent contamination of food by covering it, and by avoiding
contact with flies
- wash hands thoroughly with soap after using the toilet and before
handling and eating food
- Use latrines and keep them clean
- Discourage eating from a communal food container
- Encourage breastfeeding of infants
Health education must also include information about disease transmission,
personal hygiene, symptoms and measures to be applied at home, such as
rehydration with ORS.
Schools are important vehicle for health education, even where sanitary
conditions are not ideal
In an outbreak schools should only be closed where there is a strong
epidemiological association between school attendance and infections
Assess vendors at markets and include food vendors in health education
II. Interventions at Health facility level
i. Supplies and equipments
Buffer and emergency stocks of essential supplies should already be in place
before an epidemic starts. It is essential to establish a system to monitor their
8
use and ensure their prompt replacement. Emergency supply requirements
should be determined and individuals assigned to coordinate their procurement
and distribution. The supplies and equipment needed have been calculated on
an attack rate of 0.2, that is 200 cases may be expected to occur in a population
of 100 000. This is only for calculating initial stocks to cope with the beginning
of an epidemic of cholera. A review based on weekly actual figures will help to
reassess actual needs and prompt replacements (See annex 3)
ii. Infection risk reduction and isolation
When cholera patients are being treated in a health facility, they must be
isolated to limit the spread of the infection to the rest of the facility
population. Where this poses a challenge, a functioning Cholera Treatment
Centre (CTC) would relieve pressure on the hospital, allowing it to continue its
normal function in service to the population. It also would provide optimal
hygiene control, which is fundamental to cholera treatment. (see WHO
Communicable Disease Control in Emergencies. A Field Manual, Annex 7 page 236 for
organization of an isolation centre, essential rules in a CTC and , disinfectant preparation)
Standard precautions (hand-washing, safe disposal of contaminated articles)
must be applied as well as enteric precautions. Adapt form the following
website http://www.wsha.org/files/82/ContactEntericPrecautions.pdf
Funerals
Funerals should be held quickly and near the place of death.
Those who prepare the body for burial must be meticulous about
washing their hands with soap and clean water.
Bodies should be disinfected with a 2% chlorine solution and the
orifices blocked with cotton wool soaked in chlorine solution; they
must then be buried in plastic sacks as soon as possible.
Disinfect the clothing and bedding of the deceased by stirring them in
boiling water or by drying them thoroughly in the sun
iii. Case management
Clear patient management guidelines must be present and readily accessible in
all the facilities that are involved in cholera case management (See Annex 2)
Assess patient for dehydration (See Annex 1)
9
Use of ORS is the most effective treatment for cholera and other watery
diarrhoeal diseases. The patient must be given ORS (if available) even before
transportation to the health facility.
Severely dehydrated patients should be treated with IV fluids - Ringers Lactate
solution is the first choice (See Annex, 2 step 3)
The use of antibiotics should only be restricted to severe cases, as misuse of
antibiotics can lead to the emergence of resistance. The choice of antibiotics
should take into account the local pattern of resistance. Antibiotic resistant
Vibrio cholerae 01 should be suspected if diarrhea continues after 48 hours of
antibiotic treatment. (Annex 4)
No anti-diarrhoeal, anti-emetic, anti-spasmodic or corticosteroid drugs should
be used to treat cholera patients.
PART IV. SURVEILLANCE
Epidemiological Surveillance
A technical public health professional will be responsible for the coordination
of the surveillance in all the three camps with clearly defined responsibilities
including epidemiological investigations and interpretation of the outbreak.
He/she should collect data about the persons affected by the outbreak – the
traditional epidemiological triad of “time, place, and person”. It may be useful
to collect additional data such as place of residence, recent movement in or out
of the camp and secondary attack rate.
All proven cases must be reported immediately through the line listing from the
camp to the local health authority and UNHCR.
At the beginning of the epidemic, an attempt must be made to establish a
bacteriological diagnosis from rectal swabs or stool specimen
When suspected cases of cholera are detected in the health facility the nearest
referral facility or designated health officer should be notified immediately
Environmental Surveillance
Identify communities at risk (e.g. inadequate sanitation, unsafe water supply)
and ensure that they are informed about sources of contamination and ways to
avoid infection.
10
Investigate all proven bacteriological cases to identify sources of infection

useful in patients with marasmus (severe wasting) or kwashiorkor (severe
malnutrition with oedema), or obese patients. Tears are a relevant sign only for
infants and young children
11
ANNEX 2. Management guidelines for patients with No Dehydration,
Some dehydration and Severe Dehydration
Step 1: For No Sign of Dehydration
Patient observed to be without signs of dehydration could be treated at home.
Give ORS packets to take home. Give enough ORS for 2 days.
Instruct the patients or the care-giver to return if the patient
develops watery stool, marked thirst, repeated vomiting, fever and
bloody stool
Age Amount of solution after ORS packets needed
each loose stool
As much as wanted Enough for 2000ml/day
Step 2: For Some Dehydration
Give ORS solution in the amount recommended in the table
below. If the patient passes watery stools or wants more ORS
solution than shown, give more.
Monitor the patient frequently to ensure that ORS solution is
taken satisfactorily and to detect patients with profuse and
continuing diarrhea who will require closer monitoring.
Reassess the patient after 4 hours:
If signs of severe dehydration have appeared (this is rare),
treat as in step 1, above.
If there is still Some dehydration, repeat the procedures for
some dehydration, and start to offer food and other fluids.
If there are no signs of dehydration, go on to Step 4 to
maintain hydration by replacing continuing fluid losses.

in ml
* Use the patient's age only when you do not know the weight. The approximate amount of
ORS requires (in ml) can also be calculated by multiplying the patient's weight (in kg) by 75
NB: Use Nasogastric tube if patient cannot drink and IV therapy not possible
at the facility. Regular urinary output (every 3-4 hrs) is a good sign that enough
fluids is being given
Step 3: For Severe Dehydration
Give IV fluid immediately to replace fluid deficit. Use Ringer's
lactate solution or, if not available, normal saline.
If the patient can drink give ORS by mouth simultaneously while
the drip is being set up.
For patients aged 1 year and older, give 100 ml/kg IV in 3 hours,
as follows:
30 ml/kg as rapidly as possible (within 30 minutes); then
70 ml/kg in the next 2.5 hours
For patients aged less than 1 year, give 100ml/kg IV in 6 hours, as
follows:
30 ml/kg in the first hour; then
70 ml/kg in the next 5 hours
Monitor the patient very frequently. After the initial 30 ml/kg
have been given, the radial pulse should be strong and blood
pressure should be normal: If the pulse is not yet strong, continue
to give IV fluid rapidly
Give ORS solution (about 5 ml/kg per hour) as soon as the
patient can drink, in addition to IV fluid
Reassess the patient after 3 hours (infants after 6 hours), using
Table in Annex 2
If there are still signs of severe dehydration (this is rare),
repeat the IV therapy
If there are signs of some dehydration, continue as
indicated above for some dehydration
If there are no signs of dehydration, go on to step 3 to
maintain hydration by replacing continuing fluid losses.
13
Step 4: Maintain Hydration, Replace continuing fluid losses until
diarrhea stops
Age Amount of solution after each loose
stool
Less than 24 months 100 ml
2-9 years 200 ml
10 years and above As much as wanted
The amount of ORS solution varies from one patient to another. The greatest
amount of ORS solution is required within the first 24 hours, especially in
patients with severe dehydration. In the first 24 hours, such patients require an
average of 200 ml of ORS solution per kg of body weight.
Prompt fluid therapy with volumes of electrolyte solution, enough to correct
dehydration, acidosis and hypokalemia is the cornerstone to cholera therapy.
Oral administration of glucose-electrolyte solution (8 teaspoons sugar, half
teaspoon salt, mixed with 1 liter safe water) to patients with diarrhoea,
including patients with cholera, will save many lives.
Approximately 80 - 90% of patients can be successfully treated by oral
rehydration. It should be emphasised that all cases of diarrhoea showing signs
of dehydration must receive adequate oral rehydration immediately, before
transportation to hospital.
NB: Patients should be properly fed after vomiting has stopped
