The lack of treatment for snake venom in the Upazila Hospital has nothing to do with the personal ethics of the doctor. Snakes live in the village, but why not treat snake venom in the village?
Just as people do not have a doctorate degree from a village or upazila primary school or high school even though they are in a village or upazila, there is no system for final treatment of snake venom in a snake village or upazila government hospital despite being in a village or upazila. Here the treatment of snake venom is comparable to a doctorate degree!
Every human heart is in the village with that person, but once a heart attack occurs, the final treatment is not in the village, not even in the district headquarters hospital! He has to be taken to a heart hospital or to a medical college hospital where there are proper arrangements for the treatment of heart attack! In case of heart attack (acute myocardial infarction) in many cases but death is confirmed in 2-3 minutes.
If a snake bites one hundred people, it can be poisonous to at least 2-3 people. But it is impossible to say in advance who the 2-3 people out of a hundred may be! If the invading dead snake can be brought along, then in some cases some preconceived notions can be made. Because venomous snakes have different physical characteristics.
In cases where there is venom in the bite of the snake, the flesh of the patient's body may become numb and stop breathing at any time. And if so, the patient may need to be resuscitated through the machine in the ICU quickly from that time. If the patient's luck is good after running like this for a certain period of time, the patient will survive InshaAllah.
Moreover, the injection that is given for snake venom can cause anaphylactic shock in any patient at any time after application! It is not possible to predict in which case this will happen. And in case of anaphylactic shock, the patient may need to be taken to the ICU for treatment!
It turns out that if a patient is bitten by a venomous snake and not by a venomous snake, if the patient is bitten by a venomous snake, the patient may need to be re-admitted to the ICU due to snake venom or the potentially serious side effects of the injection used to treat the venom. For good, it should be sent directly to the Medical College Hospital instead of the Upazila Hospital. Because the Upazila Hospital does not have these arrangements, not even the District Sadar Hospital!
I hope you understand now, snakes live in the village, but why not treat snake venom in the village?
I read an article a while ago. There, the author questions the ethics of doctors as there is no snake venom treatment in the village / upazila, saying, "Doctors have value for everything else, but human life has no value!" So they do not treat snake venom in the upazila! He asks, "Do snakes live in the city?"
Writing something with such flashy questions and then blaming the doctors personally for anything can make it cheap and popular for two days, but it creates intense fitna fa ফade in the land of Allah! And fitna is worse than killing the facade!
Therefore, it is not a matter of ethics for the doctors to have no final treatment system for snake venom in the Upazila or District Sadar Hospital. Rather it is an inevitable reality! Rather it is a matter of medical care. Physician and medical system are two different things.
Any aggrieved person should not blame the doctors for this but should not throw insulting words at them but should demand from the government that the final treatment of snake venom should be done in the Upazila Hospital.
It is to be noted that if someone is bitten by a snake, the patient should be rushed to the Medical College Hospital without delay or without wasting time going to any Ojha or Kabiraj or pharmacist. If you are bitten on the legs, it is better to tie it lightly with a piece of cloth on the knees and on the elbows when you are bitten by the hands. If possible, it would be better to take multiple pictures of the dead snake or from the legs to the head of the snake from different directions through the mobile set.
If you see a snake or hear about a snake, your body does not shiver. But this fear of snakes is largely unreasonable. Except for Gokhra and Black Mamba, no snake actually bites people without persuasion. And only the first of these two tours can be seen in our country. Moreover, not all snakes are poisonous.
This unreasonable fear of snakes has created many superstitions about snake bites. Rainy season ahead. Snake nuisance during this time is higher than at any other time of the year. So if you take a little precaution and know a couple of rules of first aid, it can become life-saving.
Symptoms of snake bites
1. There are also two wounds (usually in the case of venomous snakes).
2. Some snake bites can cause severe pain at the wound site
3. There may be bleeding from the wound
4. In addition to wounds, some snake bites can cause bleeding from the nose, mouth or other parts of the body. If such bleeding is too much, it can become life-threatening
5. There may be swelling around the wound, or even blisters
6. The area around the wound may be dark or bluish in color
7. Problems with sight, speech, or breathing may occur
8. There may be severe pain in the eyes, the body may become numb
Immediate action:
1. If possible, notice what the snake looks like. The description of the snake can later help the doctor in medical planning. However, trying to see the snake can not be a waste of time.
2. Move the infected person to a safe distance. Give him courage. If there are no people around, move the affected part of the body to a safe place with as little movement as possible.
3. Lay the infected person down. Raise the chest with something under her chest.
4. Stay as calm as possible, do not move at all.
5. If there is any jewelry, watch, bangles, anklets or any other tight clothes or shoes or socks on the affected part, take it off.
6. Cover the wound with a clean bandage or soft cotton cloth.
7. Move the affected person to the hospital immediately with as little movement as possible.
Things that can't be done at all:
1. Every moment is very important to save the life of a snakebite patient. So do not waste valuable time by going to Ojha or Kabiraj.
2. There is a misconception that if you cut something around the wound, the poison will come out. This work can never be done.
3. There is no way to pull out the poison by mouth.
4. Infected hands / feet cannot be tied with rope or cloth in any way. It does more harm than good.
5. Do not apply water or ice to the wound.
Treatment:
The treatment of snake bites is not complicated at all if you can seek medical help at the right time. A simple antivenom injection and an anti-tetanus serum injection are enough to save a patient's life. In our country, antivenom injection is available in the market for almost all venomous snakes except conch snakes. The conch can be seen only in Rajshahi region. So, keep your head cool and follow the above steps without getting lost in fear of being bitten by a snake.
Here are some tips to survive snake bites:
1. If you see a snake in the vicinity, give it a chance to go away. Do not hit, or do anything that might cause it to bite. A common misconception is that when a snake bites and leaves, the snake recognizes the person and goes to the victim's house at night and bites him. Basically, the memory of snakes is very low and there is no basis for such assumptions.
2. If there is a possibility of snakes in the house, especially if there is a mud house and there are rat holes in it, buy carbolic acid and keep it in the corners of the house with the bottle. You can also pour some carbolic acid in the hole.
3. Inside a bunch of straw, a few dried chillies are burned in the fire and smoked in the hole, but if there is a snake, it will come out.
4. If there are bushes around the house, clean it.
5. Take some precautions when walking in the rain.
By being aware, on the one hand, we can avoid snake bites and on the other hand, we can save the precious lives of human beings by providing necessary treatment. So awareness is absolutely desirable.
