Post-traumatic phenomena secondary to snakebite envenomation: a psychiatric clinical perspective

  Post-traumatic phenomena secondary to snakebite envenomation: a psychiatric clinical perspective Abstract Snakebite envenomation represents a major global public health concern. Beyond physical outcomes suffered by the patients, studies have documented significant psychiatric and psychological sequelae. Consequently, there is an urgent need to document and intervene the psychiatric/psychological sequelae of snakebite envenomation alongside the clinical assessment. This work presents a narrative review of the psychiatric consequences described in snakebites in several settings. In addition, it addresses the screening/detection actions focused on Post-Traumatic Phenomena from a psychiatric perspective that are useful in general and specialized medicine settings in snakebite envenomation.

Snakebite envenomation remains a major neglected tropical disease with significant global health impact, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This Collection aims to showcase multidisciplinary research on snake venoms and envenomation, integrating molecular and omics-based characterisation of venom components with mechanistic, preclinical, and clinical insights into toxin-induced pathology.

The Collection welcomes original research, reviews, and translational studies covering venomics, proteomics, metabolomics, mechanisms of envenomation, antivenom development, innovative therapeutic strategies, and public health perspectives. Emphasis is placed on bridging fundamental venom biology with clinical translation and real-world impact in snakebite management.
