Evolution in the choice of therapies used to treat latrodectism: Redback spider antivenom or standard analgesic medications. Nothing to rave about

open access: yesEmergency Medicine Australasia, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 630-635, August 2023., 2023
Red back spider antivenom (RBSAV) use fell dramatically over time from 2013. There was no difference in rate of complete pain resolution from latrodectism when comparing patients treated with RBSAV by intravenous or intramuscular route and or standard analgesic agents. Complete resolution of pain from latrodectism is difficult to achieve. More research

Associated Clinical Factors for Coagulation Dysfunction due to Trimeresurus stejnegeri: A Retrospective Observational Study

open access: yesJournal of Toxicology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Trimeresurus stejnegeri (T.s) accounts for most snakebites in southern China, which always leads to coagulation dysfunction. Coagulopathy due to venom is widely considered to be a characteristic phenomenon of the DIC‐like syndrome. It is vitally important for first‐line clinicians to improve this condition as soon as possible.
