The most dangerous type of mala ria. Caused by the
parasite Plasmodium falciparum, this type of malaria is associated with high levels
of parasites in the blood. Red blood cells infected with the parasites tend to sludge
in capillaries and form microinfarctions -- little areas where tissue dies due to
lack of oxygen -- in the brain, liver, adrenal gland, intestinal tract, kidneys,
lungs, and other organs. Treatment is in a hospital setting, using intravenous medications.
