21 Respondents view on snakebite FGDs Themes KIIs The no of snakebite victims have increased compared to last raining season because in the village alone we have more than 20 victims Hmm.. If you use rain boots in farm and torchlight at night Farming and rearing of animals as you can most of us are agwai s and farmers 1. Problems and frequency of snakebites 2. Protection against snakebites 3. Exposure Yes, the no of victims have increased as you can see with your own eyes some of our patients are laying down on the floor of the hospital (In-charge Sunnah health clinic kanam) Well hmm I have more patients this year than previous years because now they use to bring 2-3 victims per day ( traditional healer) 20
22 Limitations Differential recall bias Cases more likely to recall than controls Incompleteness of data in the hospital records 21
23 Conclusion An outbreak of snakebite occurred in Plateau State, North central Nigeria Males were more affected than females Median age of cases was 28years (10-65 years) Lack of formal education was significantly associated with snakebite occurrence 22
24 Public health action Health education on the benefits of use of protective clothing and foot-ware (rubber boots) Community sensitization 23
25 Recommendations The State government should also support the provision of free anti-venom to referral centers Supply chain of ant-venom should be monitored Increase Community sensitization on protective measures against snakebite More awareness on radio and television on dangers associated with snakebite More transparency and accountability needed in the purchase, supply, administration and sales of anti-venom 24
