Between 1972 and 1979, more than 350,000 animal bite incidents were reported to the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. Each incident was investigated by county health authorities. To determine the type of treatment given to animal bite victims, a mailed questionnaire was sent to 1,201 persons selected from the 1972 report files. Eighty-nine percent of respondents received treatment for animal bite. The most frequent treatment (64.5%) was tetanus immunization alone or with cleaning and bandaging of the wound. Three of the 710 respondents (0.4%) received post-exposure antirabies treatment. The authors discuss recommendations for treatment of animal bites.
1972年至1979年间，超过35万起动物咬伤事件报告至洛杉矶县卫生服务部。每起事件均由县卫生当局进行调查。为确定给予动物咬伤受害者的治疗类型，向从1972年报告档案中选取的1201人发送了邮寄调查问卷。89%的受访者接受了动物咬伤治疗。最常见的治疗方法（64.5%）是单独进行破伤风免疫或同时对伤口进行清洁和包扎。710名受访者中有3人（0.4%）接受了暴露后抗狂犬病治疗。作者讨论了动物咬伤治疗的建议。
