Efficacy of specific antivenom and fresh frozen plasma in reversing Daboia palaestinae venom-induced hemostatic derangement.

This study demonstrated the ephemeral procoagulant phase of Dp envenomation for the first time. Many venom-induced thromboelastometric changes were reversed by specific antivenom but not with FFP. Prospective clinical studies are warranted to investigate whether the present findings translate to clinical efficacy.
