Scoping review on mental health issues following snakebite. This is a scoping reivew.
"Of the 11 studies reported, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was the most commonly studied mental health condition after snakebite, with five studies reporting it. Estimate of the burden of PTSD after snakebite was available from a modelling study. The other mental health conditions reported were focused around depression, psychosocial impairment of survivors after a snakebite envenomation, hysteria, delusional disorders and acute stress disorders."
"depression and PTSD are major mental health manifestations in snakebite survivors."

Structural capacity and continuum of snakebite care in the primary health care system in India: a cross-sectional assessment
Bhaumik, Norton & Jagnoor 2023
Generally paints a poor picture of PHC and CHC preparedness with respct to securing snakeite care
"Comprehensive strengthening of primary health care, across all domains, and throughout the continuum of care, instead of a piece-meal approach towards health systems strengthening, is necessitated to reduce snakebite burden in India, and possibly other high-burden nations with weak health systems. Health facility surveys are necessitated for this purpose."
