Anaphylaxis is the most important acute systemic allergic reaction. The incidence of anaphylaxis has been increasing in recent years. Therefore, all healthcare providers should know the diagnosis and management of anaphylaxis. In this article, the current approach to anaphylaxis is presented, considering the criteria accepted by the World Allergy Organization (WAO) and the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EACCI). Intramuscular epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis. However, it is still not used at the desired level. Children at risk of anaphylaxis should be trained to use adrenaline autoinjectors. After anaphylaxis develops, children should be referred to an allergist to investigate the underlying causes.
Anafilaksi en önemli akut sistemik alerjik reaksiyondur. Anafilaksi insidansı son yıllarda giderek artmaktadır. Bu nedenle, tüm sağlık çalışanları anafilaksinin tanı ve yönetimini bilmelidir. Bu makalede, Dünya Alerji Örgütü (WAO) ve Avrupa Alerji ve Klinik İmmünoloji Akademisi (EACCI) tarafından kabul edilen kriterler göz önünde bulundurularak anafilaksiye güncel yaklaşım sunulmuştur. İntramüsküler epinefrin anafilaksi için ilk basamak tedavidir. Ancak hala istenilen düzeyde kullanılmamaktadır. Anafilaksi riski taşıyan çocuklar adrenalin otoenjektörlerini kullanmak üzere eğitilmelidir. Anafilaksi geliştikten sonra, altta yatan nedenlerin araştırılması için çocuklar bir alerji uzmanına yönlendirilmelidir.
