Poster Abstract
Snake bites in the ED overall are rare in the United States. While mortality is low due to modern interventions, the sequelae - including tissue necrosis, digit amputation, and subsequent infection remain a significant concern. Here we present the case of a presumptively non-venomous snakebite, which was associated with R. mucosa bacteremia.
