New Therapy to Prevent Venom Induced Coagulopathy
This invention is the use of iron and carbon monoxide to increase clot formation after venomous snake bite. Venom exposure impairs the blood’s ability to clot. Serious complications may result in life threatening hemorrhage. This new therapy can be used as a bridging therapy between when the snake bite occurs and when the anti-venom can be given...
