| Abstract |
In 2018, Anavip became available for the treatment of rattlesnake envenomations in the USA. No comparisons between the treatment characteristics of patients have been made since Anavip and CroFab have both been widely available. The objective of this study was to compare the number of antivenom vials administered of CroFab and Anavip during the treatment of rattlesnake envenomations in the USA. This was a secondary analysis of rattlesnake envenomations utilizing the North American Snakebite Registry (NASBR) from 2019 through 2021. Frequencies and proportions were used to summarize demographics and baseline clinical characteristics. The primary outcome was total antivenom vials administered during treatment. Secondary outcomes included the number antivenom administration events, total treatment time, and hospital length of stay. Two hundred ninety-one rattlesnake envenomations were analyzed; most occurred in the Western USA (n = 279, 96 %). One hundred one patients (35%) received only CroFab, 110 (38%) received Anavip only, and 80 (27%) received both products. The median number of vials used was 10 for CroFab, 18 for Anavip, and 20 for both antivenoms. More than one antivenom administration was necessary in thirty-nine (39%) patients that received only CroFab and 76 (69%) patients that received Anavip only. The median total treatment time was 5.5 hours for CroFab, 6.5 for Anavip, and 15.5 hours when both antivenoms were administered. All antivenom groups had a median hospital length of stay of 2 days. Rattlesnake envenomated patients in the Western USA treated with CroFab had fewer antivenom vials and fewer antivenom administrations compared to patients treated with Anavip. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 37. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 August 2023.
All research outputs
#1,034,144
of 24,256,961 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Medical Toxicology
#60
of 694 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#20,951
of 389,712 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Medical Toxicology
#1
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,256,961 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 694 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 18.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 389,712 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
