Abstract
⺠Some rattlesnake envenomated patients develop severe late hematologic venom effects. ⺠We managed five patients with a novel treatment of continuous IV Fab antivenom. ⺠All patients responded to 3-4 vials of antivenom per 24 h for 6-14 days. ⺠The safety and efficacy of this treatment approach requires additional study.
