Abstract
In our area, foods, particularly seafood and milk, seem to be the most important etiologic factors triggering anaphylaxis. Food-induced anaphylaxis often occurs in younger children with a severe food allergy, whereas exercise-induced anaphylaxis occurs more often in older children with a history of urticaria-angioedema. The venom-induced variant usually presents itself in nonatopic subjects. Given the fact that most of the children had only one anaphylactic reaction, prevention is almost impossible. Epinephrine, although it is the first-choice treatment of anaphylaxis, often goes unused, even in hospitals and doctors’ offices.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
