Is anti‐snake venom required for all snakebites: A case report
Abstract
Abstract The classification of snakebite is based on clinical examination and laboratory tests. In cases, of suspected hemotoxic snakebite, the anti‐snakebite venom (ASV) is administered based on 20‐minute whole blood clotting time. However, the use of ASV should be guided by the presence of bleeding diathesis along with raised clotting time.
