This dataset contains the results of analysis of original peer-reviewed articles in English published between 2004 and 2024 that reported quantitative data on the real-life application of pre-hospital non-medical help in snakebite incidents.
The search of eligible papers was carried out in October 2024 in PubMed using the following request: ((snakebit*[Title/Abstract]) OR (snake* bit*[Title/Abstract]) OR (snake* envenom*[Title/Abstract]) OR (snake* venom*[Title/Abstract]) OR (Snake Bites[MeSH Terms])) AND (2004:2024[pdat]) AND (English[Language]).
The dataset table collected the following data (sheet #1 "Dataset"): article author(s), year of publication, article source link, study design, study geography (country), study sample characteristics, sample size, types of providers of pre-hospital non-medical help, types of help-seeking and helping behaviours and practices, rates of their occurrence presented as percentages with one decimal place, and data on statistically significant associations between particular helping practices and health outcomes.
Sheet #2 ("Bibliography") of the dataset file contains a complete bibliography of the articles included in the analysis (n=158).
