Abstract

Background: SCORPION BITES are one of the major health problems in some parts of Iran. THE MILITARY are at special risk because of prolonged presence in specific and hard environmental and climatic conditions. Considering the history of wars in the country, major health problems of scorpions, and fears of THE MILITARY about outcomes of the bites, it is necessary to conduct more complete studies on all aspects of this problem especially epidemiology and treatment during the peace.Materials and methods: This study was a prospective case series conducted from May 2002 to December 2003. Location of the study was the North-West region of KHUZESTAN Province. All cases that came to THE MILITARY clinic were entered to the study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 12.0 software.Results: Totally, 139 cases of SCORPION BITES by ANDROCTONUS CRASSICAUDA came to the clinic; 66.6% in 2002 and 33.4% in 2003. Nearly 69.8% of cases were soldiers. Most bites were occurred during summer. All patients were treated conservatively without injecting ANTI-SCORPION SERUM and discharged without any complication.Conclusions: The major threat in that region is because of ANDROCTONUS CRASSICAUDA bites. Considering that there is no need to inject ANTI-SCORPION SERUM for these kinds of bites, further evaluation and doing more thorough studies about treatment is recommended. Moreover, no relation was seen between SCORPION BITES and different nights of months.
