Warning out there …. Rattlesnakes are still out and about . Many are displaced due to construction causing the loss of safe dens. Beware . This is Laila and she was bitten by a rattlesnake . Meet Laila!! Rattle Snake venom is a Hemotoxin !!! Definitely a Veterinary emergency! Laila received antivenin and then was referred to us at All Creatures Hyperbaric Care for our advanced snake bite protocol designed to save tissue and minimize damage to the entire body.
Hemotoxins, are toxins that destroy red blood cells , disrupt blood clotting, cause organ degeneration and generalized tissue damage. Injury from a hemotoxic snake bite is often very painful and can cause permanent damage and in severe cases death. Loss of an affected limb is possible even with prompt treatment.
Hyperbarics job is to minimize tissue damage and speed the clearance of toxins out of the body without damaging the organs.Hyperbaric ability to by pass the damaged area and bathe the oxygen starve tissue with an abundance of oxygen via the capillary system, the plasma can be saturated up 15 times more oxygen molecules than the red blood cell side. Due to the physics behind Hyperbarics .Thus saving tissue, mitigating the inflammation quickly .
