TY - JOUR PY - 2020// TI - Is anti-snake venom required for all snakebites: A case report JO - Clinical case reports A1 - Dorji, Thinley SP - 194 EP - 197 VL - 8 IS - 1 N2 - The classification of snakebite is based on clinical examination and laboratory tests. In cases, of suspected hemotoxic snakebite, the anti-snakebite venom (ASV) is administered based on 20-minute whole blood clotting time. However, the use of ASV should be guided by the presence of bleeding diathesis along with raised clotting time.
