A Retrospective Study of Snake Bite Patients Admitted in ICU in Past 3 Years
Snake-bite is an important medical emergency which results in the death or chronic disability of many active younger people. Despite its importance, there have been fewer proper clinical studies of snake-bite than of almost any other tropical disease. This study is done with the objective of studying the incidence of various types of snake bite patients requiring ventilator support and their outcome.
