“…The fang length of venomous snakes ranges between 5.0 cm in certain vipers ( Bitis gabonica, Bitis rhinoceros ) to as little as 0.2 cm in some elapids ( Pseudonaja guttata) ( Mirtschin et al, 2017 ). There are studies related to fang length, inter-fang distance, and venom yield for some medically relevant snakes available, but additional measurements would be useful to compare these attributes for regional groupings of medically relevant snakes( Braga et al, 2022 ; de Roodt et al, 2016 ; de Roodt et al, 1998 ; Gao et al, 2019 ; Hayes et al, 2017 ; Mirtschin et al, 2017 ; Mirtschin et al, 2002 ; Morrison et al, 1983 ; Nascimento da Costa et al, 2020 ). The amount of venom delivered as well as the depth of tissue penetration may affect the pre-hospital treatment of SBE in a variety of ways.…”
