This review details arthropod stings and bites from wasps, bees, scorpions, spiders, ticks, and marine animals. It covers venom composition, reactions, clinical presentations, and treatments, including snakebites specific to Navarra.

Area of Science:

  • Toxicology
  • Dermatology
  • Emergency Medicine

Context:

  • Arthropod envenomation presents a significant public health concern, requiring accurate diagnosis and timely management.
  • Understanding the diverse clinical manifestations and toxicological profiles of various venomous creatures is crucial for effective treatment.
  • Geographic variations in species distribution, such as ophidia in Navarra, necessitate region-specific knowledge for bite management.

Purpose:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of stings and bites from common arthropods and marine animals.
  • To differentiate between the effects of various venomous arthropod stings, including wasps and bees.
  • To outline the clinical presentations and appropriate treatments for a range of envenomations, with a focus on snakebites in Navarra.

Summary:

  • The review examines the toxicology and clinical effects of stings from Hymenoptera (wasps, bees), arachnids (scorpions, spiders), and ectoparasites (ticks).
  • It further details envenomations by marine fauna and provides specific guidance on snakebites, differentiating between snake and viper species prevalent in Navarra.
  • Key aspects covered include venom composition, local and systemic reactions, diagnostic criteria, and therapeutic interventions for each category of envenomation.

Impact:

  • Enhances clinical decision-making for healthcare professionals managing venomous creature encounters.
  • Improves patient outcomes through standardized diagnostic and treatment protocols for arthropod and snakebites.
  • Contributes to public health awareness and preparedness regarding venomous animal exposures in endemic regions.
