0515/2018 - Incidência de acidentes ofídicos por gêneros de serpentes nos biomas brasileiros Incidence of ophidian accidents by snake genera in Brazilian Biomes.
O aporte de insumos para o tratamento de acidentes ofídicos, bem como o treinamento da equipe assistencial deve ser orientado de acordo com a frequência e riscos por áreas geográficas. Objetivo: Analisar a tendência da taxa de incidência de acidentes ofídicos segundo gênero de serpentes nos biomas brasileiros no período de 2003 a 2012. Método: Estudo ecológico de tendência da taxa de incidência dos acidentes ofídicos por serpentes dos gêneros Bothrops, Crotalus, Lachesis e Micrurus para os biomasno período de 2003-2012, por meio de regressão de Prais –Winsten. Resultados: O número de acidentes passou de 26.082 em 2003 para 27.870 em 2012, com aumento de demanda por insumos. A análise de tendência da taxa de incidência mostrou tendência estacionária, exceto para o gênero Crotalus com tendência ascendente no agregado do Brasil. Tendência ascendente foi verificada no Cerrado para o gênero Crotalus, Lachesis e Micrurus, no Pampa também para Crotalus, na Caatinga para o gênero Lachesise na Mata Atlântica para o gênero Micrurus. Conclusão: A tendência estacionária verificada para os acidentes ofídicos no Brasil decorre da maioria destes (87%) serem causados por serpentes do gênero Bothrops. No entanto, destaca-se aumento do risco para acidentes com serpentes dos gêneros Crotalus, Lachesis e Micrurus.

Abstract:
the supply of supplies for the treatment of ophidian accidents, as well as the training of the care team should be oriented according to the frequency and risks by geographic alareas. Objective: To analyze the trend of the incidence rate of snake bites in the Brazilian biomes between 2003 and 2012. Method: Ecological study of the incidence rate of snake bites in Bothrops, Crotalus, Lachesis and Micrurus for the Brazilian biomes, in the period of 2003-2012, through a regression of Prais-Winsten. Results: The number of accidents in creased26,082 in 2003 to 27,870 in 2012, with increased demand for inputs. The trend analysis of the incidence rate showed a steady trend, except for the genus Crotalus with an upward trend in the Brazilian aggregate. Upward trend was verified in the Cerrado for the genus Crotalus, Lachesis and Micrurus, in the Pampa also for Crotalus, in the Caatinga for the genus Lachesisand in theAtlantic Forest for the genus Micrurus.Conclusion: The steady trend observed for ophidian accidents in Brazilis due to the fact that most of these (87%) are caused by snakes of the Bothrops genus. However, there is an increase drisk of accidents with snakes of the genus Crotalus, Lachesis and Micrurus, as well as the particularities according to biomes.
