ASSESSMENT OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT FIRST AID METHODS, DIAGNOSIS, AND MANAGEMENT OF SNAKEBITE AMONG NURSING STUDENTS.

Abstract

Snakebite is a serious and important medical emergency encountered in many parts of the world. It is a threat to public health, particularly in rural areas where snakes are more likely to be found. Snakebite remains a significant source of morbidity and mortality particularly in regions where agriculture is the main occupation for a large number of people which increases the likelihood of encountering snakes. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 4.5 to 5.4 million people experience snakebites per year. traditional remedies instead. Some countries have a more than 70% rate of under-reporting, particularly in poorly equipped rural regions. Signs and symptoms of snakebites caused by different species vary widely. three thousand different species of snakes are recognized. Five hundred species of those belong to either one of 3 families of venomous snakes which are Viperidae, elapid, and Hydropedal Around 250 venomous snakes are listed by the WHO as medically important. Snakebite is a serious medical emergency, with the result ranging from local tissue damage to the involvement of almost all vital organs of the body, which may lead to severe paralysis that threatens the ability to breathe, result in bleeding problems that may develop into fatal haemorrhages, and lead to permanent renal failure and extensive destruction of local tissue and possibly permanent disability or limb loss. Children tend to develop quicker and more severe reactions compared to adults due to the difference in body size. +e patients of snakebite often use traditional remedies and get improper first aid measures before presenting to the hospital. mortality from snakebites is due to the lack of awareness about the proper management of victims. Proper first aid in managing snakebite victims is one of the effective ways to decrease mortality.
