Snake envenomation of companion animals

The presentations presents a summary of some the clinically pertinent literature since 2000 on Australian snake envenomation as well as information gained from our clinical experience. There are fascinating new developments in the treatment of snake envenomation. Many conclusions from the literature and our own clinical practice remain largely consistent with those of the review and clinic observations I wrote for the University of Sydney Post Graduate Committee in Veterinary Science Toxicology course held in 1999 (“Snake Envenomation of Companion Animals”), but there are some notable evidenced based changes. The PDF of this 2017 presentation will be available for download as is a protocol for the treatment of the snake envenomated patients.
