چکیده انگلیسی
The authors present a summary of the proceedings and the recommendations of the the 4th International Conference on Envenomations by Snakebites and Scorpion Stings in Africa, held from April 25th to 29th in Dakar. After a two day training workshop for Senegalese health personnel on the most relevant aspects of the management of envenomations, about 270 participants met to share their experiences in the field. Nearly a hundred oral and poster contributions concerning the epidemiology of snakebites and scorpion stings in Africa, the composition and action of venoms, as well as the manufacture and use of antivenoms, were presented and discussed. The last day was devoted to an institutional debate joining experts, representatives of national health authorities and concerned professionals (physicians, pharmacists, nurses and traditional healers) as well as members of the pharmaceutical industry, to discuss and elaborate a set of recommendations. It was agreed that it is necessary to improve knowledge of the epidemiological situation by case reporting. Quality control of anivenoms and procedures for their registration at the level of national health authorities should aim at improving the distribution of safe and effective antivenoms in peripheral health centers, which bear the heaviest burden of cases. It was also recommended that adequate training of health personnel in all aspects of medical management of envenomations should constitute a priority. Finally, financing mechanisms to ensure an equitable distribution of resources must be sought, as well as the constitution of a network of African experts were discussed at length.
