The South American rattlesnake is a large, highly venomous pit viper. It lives across much of South America, except the Andes Mountains, and also on some Caribbean islands. It is the most widely spread member of its genus, which is why it matters to people in so many places.1

Chaqadi

Chaqqanda zahar zaharli tishlari yoki tishlari orqali chiqadi.

Uning zahari (chaqsa yoki nish ursa) nima qiladi?

Its venom contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves, and myotoxins, which damage muscle. These cause progressive paralysis, including impaired or lost vision, hearing problems, drooping eyelids and weakness in the neck muscles, which can become so limp that the head appears broken. Breathing can eventually be stopped by paralysis, and the muscle damage can cause dark urine.1

It is a highly venomous snake. The mortality rate is 72% for bite cases without specific serum treatment, and 11% for cases with it. Acute kidney failure is considered the main cause of death.1

Yaxshi xabar: shifokorlarda buning uchun dori (zaharga qarshi zardob) yoki davolash usuli bor.1

Qoʻrqqanda nima qiladi?

It is highly alert and gives little warning before it strikes, but it is seldom aggressive towards people.1

Agar chaqsa

  • Specific serum treatment (antivenom) greatly lowers the death rate, so a bite needs urgent hospital care to give it.1
  • Odamni qimirlamay va xotirjam tut, chaqilgan qoʻl yoki oyoqni yurak balandligida ushla, uzuk va siquvchi narsalarni yechib ol va tezda kasalxonaga olib bor.

  • Unga joy ber. Agar duch kelsang, xotirjam boʻl, sekin orqaga chekin va uni oʻz yoʻliga ketishiga qoʻy.
  • Agar biri seni chaqsa: xotirjam boʻl, qimirlamay tur, favqulodda yordam raqamiga qoʻngʻiroq qil (112, 000, 911) yoki tezda kasalxonaga yet. U qanday koʻrinishda ekanini eslab qol, surat yordam beradi.
