Evaluation of Cyanea capillata Sting Management Protocols Using Ex Vivo and In Vitro Envenomation Models [PDF]
Toxins, 2017 Lion’s mane jellyfish (Cyanea capillata) stings cause severe pain and can lead to dangerous systemic effects, including Irukandji-like syndrome. As is the case for most cnidarian stings, recommended medical protocols in response to such stings lack ...

Emergency 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

A Probable Case of Irukandji Syndrome in Thailand [PDF]
Journal of Travel Medicine, 2006 The Irukandji syndrome is a jellyfish envenomation caused by Carukia barnesi or related jellyfish. In literature, the distribution of "Irukandji-like" syndromes is restricted to Australia. We report a case of probable Irukandji syndrome in Thailand. With this report, we hope to promote awareness to aid sting prevention and stimulate research.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1794-1803, February 2020., 2020 Toxin complexity in the alien coral Tubastraea coccinea is conserved and co‐evolved with innovation of the venom delivery system. Morphological development of the coral and phenotypic expression of the venom and delivery system is not modulated by habitat pressures over short periods of time.

Management of Irukandji syndrome in northern Australia
Rural and Remote Health, 2005 Irukandji syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition that follows the sting of small carybdeid jellyfish, occurs along the northern Australian coastline from Broome, Western Australia in the west to Rockhampton, Queensland in the east. Much of this area is classified rural or remote.
