Published: September 5 and 12, 2007 Affidavit Justice Court Oregon Poison Cen ter aims to determine which northwest spiders bite The Oregon Poison Center at Oregon Health & Science U niversity hopes to better understand spider bites in the Northwest by determining which spiders bite, which cause skin loss (ulcers), and specifically whether the much-maligned hobo spider does either. S pider b ites have been the subject o f much folklore in m edicine, but evidence directly linking spider bites to ulceration or infection is thin. Often a person will see a red mark on their skin, see a spider nearby, and attribute the mark to the spider. The Northwest na tive hobo spider has been implicated as a source o f ul cers and skin infections for many years. Its venom has been demonstrated to cause tissue death when injected into the skin o f anim als, but there is debate about whether the spider ever bites or is even capable o f biting humans. “There isn’t a single documented case o f actu ally seeing a hobo spider bite a human that resulted in u lc e ra tio n ,” said Rob Hendrickson, M.D., study principal investigator, as sociate professor o f emer gency medicine and medical toxicologist. “However, the HHS Class o f’67 hold reunion H ep p n er High School’s Class o f 1967 held their 40th reunion in Red mond at the home o f Dennis and Peggy O ’D onnell on August 17, 18, and 19. F rid ay n ig h t w as spent eating pizza and re new ing old frien d sh ip s. C lassm ates roasted Rick Johnston on getting the 2A Coach o f the Year. Class mates also watched a DVD o f various class pictures made by Peggy O ’Donnell. A special remembrance was held for deceased classmates Linda Warren, Marsha Sow ell Sweek, and Jeff Turner. On Saturday morn ing some o f the classmates went golfing. Jim Lieuallen was the overall winner. In the evening a dinner was held at Eagle Crest followed by karaoke and more visit ing at the O ’Donnell’s. A brunch was held on Sunday morning before everyone headed home. The class voted to have another reunion in five years. The reunion will be hosted by M arty and Jim Sheriff's Report MCHD calendar - f t f! ^ MuMAij'i D*q. » I hobo spider has been pre sumed to be the only spider in the Northwest capable o f causing ulceration.” The Oregon Poison Center currently takes about 1,200 calls a year from Or egonians concerned about possible spider bites. The center has decided to take the next step by asking all O regonians who actually see a spider bite them to call 800 222-1222. Poison center staff will offer medical ad vice as usual and then make follow-up calls during the next several weeks to check for signs o f ulceration and infection. The caller also will be sent a postage-paid package in which to send the spider to the poison center. “We understand not everyone will feel comfort able killing the spider, and we won’t pressure them to do so, but we would still like to hear about the spi der bite,” said Nathanael McKeown, D.O., study co- investigator, instructor in em ergency m edicine and fellow in medical toxicol ogy, OHSU. All spiders collected will be sent to a local expert in identifying N orthw est spiders. The species o f spi der will be linked with the description o f the lesion to determ ine w hich spiders bite. The Oregon Poison C enter can be reached at 800-222-1222.
