The species that cause ophidic accidents in State of Para\u00edba are Bothropoides erythromelas, Bothrops leucurus and Bothropoides neuwiedi. METHODS: This is a prospective and transverse study, following a quantitative approach of accidents involving Bothrops and Bothropoides admitted to the Toxicological Assistance and Information Centers of Campina Grande and Jo\u00e3o Pessoa (Ceatox-CG and Ceatox-JP), aimed at identifying the epidemiological and clinical profile of such accidents. All of the patients admitted had medical diagnoses and were monitored at Ceatox-CG or Ceatox-JP. RESULTS: The genera Bothrops and Bothropoides caused 91.7% of the ophidic accidents reported. Snake bites were frequent in men (75.1%), rural workers (65.1%), literate individuals (69%) between 11 and 20 years-old (21.7%), and toes the most common area attacked (52.7%). Most (86.6%) patients were admitted within 6 hours after the accident\/bite, with a predominance of mild cases (64.6%). The annual occurrence in Para\u00edba was 5.5 accidents\/100,000 inhabitants and lethality was 0.2%. CONCLUSIONS: Positive changes in the profiles of these accidents were verified, such as the non-application of inadequate solutions, including the use of tourniquet, coffee grounds, garlic, suction and\/or cutting the bitten area. Moreover, the Itinerant Laboratory project, linked to Para\u00edba State University in partnership with Ceatox-CG, has contributed positively, providing several cities of the state with information regarding the prevention of accidents involving venomous animals. The local press has also contributed, reporting the educational work developed by the centers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s0037-86822010000600012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,20]],"date-time":"2010-12-20T01:28:59Z","timestamp":1292808539000},"page":"662-667","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":40,"title":["Accidents
