A study of clinical profile and outcome of patients with snake bite-induced acute kidney injury
The cause of AKI in snakebite was multifactorial in origin. Bleeding and hypotension were among the important causes. Thrombocytopenia was significantly related to clinical bleeding. The type of snakebite is an important factor in the development of AKI and Russell's viper bite is more commonly associated with it. AKI is usually associated with oliguria and generally occurs within 48 hours.
