District is located on the western coast of Sumatra, roughly 1200 km from Banda Aceh, site of the Boxing Day tsunami in 2006. In 2010, Agam had a population of just over 450,000 living in both urban and rural areas. LF species in this area is B. malayi and the mf rate was 8.06 at the beginning of the elimination programme (Ministry of Health order Saroglitazar Magnesium Indonesia). Agam District conducted five MDA rounds by 2011 with an average epidemiological coverage rate of 78.2 for the entire IU. The reported drug coverage for these five rounds get Saroglitazar Magnesium ranged from 89.6 to 96.7 based on District Health Authority data. Therefore, based on the achieved coverage rates for MDA in Agam and sentinel and spot-check site data assessed as <1 microfilaremia rates, the district qualified for a TAS in 2012. In total, 1315 students from 35 primary schools in all 16 subdistricts were included in the sample. From these, 102 Brugia Rapid tests were positive (from 28 primary schools) (Ministry of Health Indonesia). As a result, Agam District did not qualify to stop MDA and was required to continue MDA for an additional two years (2013, 2014).Questionnaire developmentThe survey tool developed during the course of this research was rooted in the use of a micronarrative or a brief story reflecting personal experiences with the most recent MDA. Unlike Knowledge, Attitudes and Practice (KAP) surveys, the majority of the survey questions related to this specific experience or story. In order to solicit a story, the respondent was asked a specific `prompting' question, like "Tell me what happened after you received the drugs for LF?" Following the respondent's story, a series of closed questions related to that specific experience were asked, including details about the story participants, the location, the outcome (swallowed the LF pills or not) as well as related emotions. The micronarrative survey is based on the recognition that participation with MDA is a social process, rather than a strictly individual one. As such, an individual's direct and indirect experiences with the MDA and with the people associated with MDA will be most revealing about how the implementation of MDA can be improved. One of the important advantages of working with micronarrative is that it does not constrain the respondent to provide information within a tightly prescribed framework of questions and answer options. Storytelling provides a mechanism to explore both expected and unexpected themes, using the respondent's personal experience as the reference point for subsequent closed questions. Because the use of micronarrative combines the range and depth commonly seen in qualitative research methodologies with the accuracy and precision of cross sectional surveys, it offers a range of analytical possibilities that will be explored in a subsequent publication. Development of the survey tool was done together with stakeholders and health staff from both districts. Through a series of workshops relevant themes known to be associated with MDA outcomes were identified. The conceptual model used to guide this research used the outcome of taking LF drugs (e.g. compliance) as a function of the interactions between the deliverer, the endemic community member and the MDA setting itself. In actuality, two survey tools were created ne to address the experiences of those involved in the drug delivery and one for the endemic community member receiving the LF drug. This paper presents the survey tool and results for the end.District is located on the western coast of Sumatra, roughly 1200 km from Banda Aceh, site of the Boxing Day tsunami in 2006.
