What interventions are NOT appropriate when treating a snakebite?
1. DO NOT cut, suck, electrocute, burn, or use chemicals on the
envenomation site.
2. DO NOT apply constricting bandages, tourniquets, or other
circulation-reducing intervention!
3. DO NOT use venom extractors or other commercial snakebite first
aid kits.
4. DO NOT administer test doses of antivenom to check for
hypersensitivity as these are ineffective and waste both time and
antivenom.
5. DO NOT administer antihistamines or steroids as prophylactic
pretreatment for prevention of anaphylaxis or other early adverse
reactions (EARs) to antivenom as neither is effective as a
premedication.
WHO category_____ venomous snakes are defined as "highly venomous
snakes which are common or widespread and cause numerous
snakebites, resulting in high levels of morbidity, disability or mortality."
Category 1: Venomous Snakes of Highest Medical Importance
,WHO category______ venomous snakes are defined as "highly venomous
snakes capable of causing morbidity, disability or death, for which exact
epidemiological or clinical data may be lacking; and/or which are less
frequently implicated (due to their activity cycles, behavior, habitat
preferences or occurrence in areas remote to large human
populations)."
Category 2: Venomous Snakes of Secondary Medical Importance
What are criteria used to predict the need for a massive transfusion using
the assessment of blood consumption score?
Patients received one point for any of the following: penetrating
mechanism; positive focused assessment sonography for trauma
(FAST); systolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg; heart rate greater
than or equal to 120 beats per minute.
An ABC score of two or greater predicted the need for massive blood
transfusion with 75% sensitivity and 86% specificity.
Blood product usage can be optimized when hemorrhage control is
undertaken simultaneously.
True
,Rapid transfusion of blood can cause sheering of RBCs and should be
avoided if possible.
True
In low titer group O whole blood, the titer of Anti-A and Anti-B
antibodies is low enough to represent minimal risk of clinical
consequences, and may be considered a universal donor.
True
Blood products should be transfused in a plasma:platelet:RBC ratio of
___________
1:1:1
, If available, type ______________ RBCs should be used preferentially for
females of childbearing years.
Type O negative
When administering blood products, potential future pregnancy
complications takes precedence over resuscitation and prevention of
exsanguination in female patients.
False
"Never frozen" liquid plasma has a shelf life of _____ days.
26 days and may be more readily available
Thawed plasma has a shelf life of ________
26 Days
Ensure that all blood products issues have a ___________ attached and
activated for temperature monitoring.
Safe-T-VUE (NSN 6515-08-T00-3056)
Before loading blood products for transportation, ensure that the
blood product containers are __________ and __________ .
Properly charged and maintained prior to loading blood products.
