ANTIVENOM IN SEA-SNAKE BITE POISONING

Lancet, The, 1975
Among a series of 101 patients bitten by sea-snakes in Malaya in the years 1957-64, 80% were fishermen. Bathers and divers are occasionally bitten. Before sea-snake antivenom became available the mortality-rate (despite the high toxicity of sea-snake venom) was only 10%; however, of 11 with serious poisoning, 6 died.

Medical Journal of Australia, 1984
A rare occurrence of serious envenomation by a sea snake in the waters of a popular Sydney beach is reported. A 19-year-old man was bitten while swimming, then quickly developed major proximal neuromuscular complications. Prompt, effective first aid (firm limb bandaging and splinting), transport to hospital, and administration of antivenom led to the ...

Biotoxicology of sea snake venoms

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1987
Sea snakes are the most abundant venomous reptiles, found throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Divided into two subfamilies, Laticaudinae and Hydrophiinae, all sea snakes are poisonous. Venoms are highly toxic, as indicated by low LD50 values in test animals. Toxic compounds include presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins.

ENVENOMATION BY SEA SNAKE IN QUEENSLAND

Medical Journal of Australia, 1981
A case of a near-fatal sea snake bite, believed to the the first such case in Australia, is presented. The two-year-old girl victim became unconscious and apnoeic soon after envenomation by an Astrotia stokesii, and required artificial ventilation for 22 hours. She regained consciousness 4 1/2 hours after the administration of antivenom.

Cross-neutralization by tiger snake (Notechis scutatus) antivenene and sea snake (Enhydrina schistosa) antivenene against several sea snake venoms

Toxicon, 1974
Abstract In vitro cross-neutralization of venoms of nine species of sea snake was studied, using mice and immunodiffusion patterns as indicators. Tiger snake antivenene was more effective than sea-snake antivenene against all species. Both antivenenes neutralized all venoms tested— Aipysurus laevis , Astrotia stokesii , Enhydrina schistosa ...

Ovoviviparity in Sea-Snakes

Nature, 1930
MR. SMEDLEY'S note on viviparity in the sea-snake (Laticauda colubrina) in NATURE of Aug. 30, p. 312, needs some comment. My statement (which he quotes) that all sea-snakes are viviparous was not a reiteration of that of previous authors, but a confirmation, based upon personal knowledge of the group.
