Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to determine the factors influencing hospitalization durations and discharge status of patients with snakebite, starting from pre-hospital care in the field.Materials and Methods: A total of 38 patients with snakebite admitted to the emergency medicine department between May 1st, 2013 and August 31st, 2016, participated in the study. Data were evaluated using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 17.0.Results: A total of 38 patients were enrolled, of which, 17 (44.7%) were female. Of the 38 patients enrolled, nine patients were in stage 1, 24 in stage 2, and 5 in stage 3. The mean antivenoms given to patients were 3.33±1.29 vials in stage 2 and 4.40±1.14 vials in stage 3. The mean time from bite to antivenom infusion was 80.92±47.57 mins. Hospitalization durations of patients with shorter bite to antivenom infusion intervals (bite-to-needle) were also shorter (p
