Treatment of pit viper bites

The belly snake is a type of venomous snake. If you are bitten by it, treatment of the wound: 1. If at the scene, immediately give the limb of the proximal end of the wound to be bound to block the blood flow to avoid the toxin from spreading through the blood and then affecting the whole body, leading to symptoms of systemic poisoning. In addition, if possible, after the wound is cut, the toxin inside is drained out as much as possible, and the blood can be drawn out by suction cups or by applying an attractor. 2, after the poisoning of the abdominal snake, the most likely cause is respiratory depression. If there is difficulty in breathing, respiratory stimulants can be applied. In case of respiratory arrest, tracheal intubation must be given, followed by ventilator-assisted breathing.3. Emergency application of antivenom.4. The main thing is symptomatic treatment and control of vital signs. In case of shock, blood volume should be expanded and anti-shock drugs such as dexamethasone or antihypertensive drugs, dopamine and alamine should be given. 5. If possible, hemodialysis can be applied to detoxify the patient if the vital signs are stabilized.
