In this study, we examined the clinical manifestations, laboratory evidence, and the circumstances of snakebites caused by non-venomous snakes, which were treated at the Regional Hospital of Juruá in Cruzeiro do Sul.
Data were collected through patient interviews, identification of the species that were taken to the hospital, and the clinical manifestations.
Eight confirmed and four probable cases of non-venomous snakebites were recorded.
The symptoms produced by the snakes Helicops angulatus and Philodryas viridissima, combined with their coloration can be confused with venomous snakes (Bothrops atrox and Bothrops bilineatus), thus resulting in incorrect bothropic snakebite diagnosis.
在本研究中,我们调查了在南克鲁塞罗的茹鲁阿地区医院接受治疗的无毒蛇咬伤的临床表现、实验室证据及相关情况。
通过对患者进行访谈、识别送至医院的蛇的种类以及观察临床表现来收集数据。
记录了8例确诊和4例疑似无毒蛇咬伤病例。
角花蛇和翠青蛇产生的症状,再加上它们的体色,可能会与有毒蛇(矛头蝮和双线矛头蝮)相混淆,从而导致对矛头蝮蛇咬伤的诊断错误。
