ABSTRACT
Timely pre-hospital management of snake bite and poisoning cases is hindered by the lack of information about availability of antidotes in hospitals. We aim to build a regional antidote database by collecting real-time antidote stock information from hospital pharmacy inventory systems and make this information available to the emergency medical technicians (EMTs). This would save valuable time, leading to improved outcomes for the patients.
