Epidemiology and characteristics of coral snake bites reported to the National Poison Data System (2006‒2022)

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Objectives North American coral snake envenomations can result in life‐threatening neurotoxicity. Their bites are relatively rare, making large studies difficult. Using the National Poison Data System (NPDS), we sought to investigate the epidemiological trends and clinical outcomes associated with North American coral snake bites over a 17 ...

[Neuromuscular action of crotalid venoms: preliminary data].

Arquivos de neuro-psiquiatria, 1996
We studied 6 patients and 2 dogs that have been bitten by South American rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus and one rabbit inoculated with crotalid venom. We analyzed sensory and motor peripheral nerve conduction, repetitive stimulation for studying neuromuscular transmission and electromyographies.
