摘要: Abstract Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is a rare life-threatening consequence of venom induced consumption coagulopathy in snake-bite. It unclear why certain patients haemorrhage. We aimed to investigate ICH snake envenoming. Cases venom-induced from July 2005–June 2014 were identified the Australian Snakebite Project, prospective multicentre cohort snake-bites. with extracted data on snake-bite, clinical effects, laboratory investigations, treatment and outcomes. 552 cases had coagulopathy; median age, 40 y (2–87 y), 417 (76%) males, 253 (46%) brown snakes 17 died (3%). There 6/552 (1%) ICH; 71 y (59–80 y), three males five snakes. All received antivenom died. six history hypertension. Time onset effects consistent was 8–12 h four cases, within 3 h two. Difficult manage hypertension vomiting common. One patient normal cerebral CT presentation after focal neurological repeat showed an ICH. snake-bite only 1% developing one. Older age associated
