New Web-based antivenom index now available

Launched on Aug. 10, the Online Antivenom Index is a Web-based database allowing doctors, poison control centers and hospitals to access up-to-date information about antivenom stocked at AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums. Steven Seifert, M.D., professor in the department of surgery, emergency medicine section, at UNMC, and medical director of the Nebraska Regional Poison Center, was one of the team members that helped develop the index.
