  • Differentiating Between Anxiety, Syncope & Anaphylaxis
    Differentiating between anxiety, syncope & anaphylaxis Dr. Réka Gustafson Medical Health Officer Vancouver Coastal Health Introduction Anaphylaxis is a rare but much feared side-effect of vaccination. Most vaccine providers will never see a case of true anaphylaxis due to vaccination, but need to be prepared to diagnose and respond to this medical emergency. Since anaphylaxis is so rare, most of us rely on guidelines to assist us in assessment and response. Due to the highly variable presentation, and absence of clinical trials, guidelines are by necessity often vague and very conservative. Guidelines are no substitute for good clinical judgment. Anaphylaxis Guidelines • “Anaphylaxis is a potentially life-threatening IgE mediated allergic reaction” – How many people die or have died from anaphylaxis after immunization? Can we predict who is likely to die from anaphylaxis? • “Anaphylaxis is one of the rarer events reported in the post-marketing surveillance” – How rare? Will I or my colleagues ever see a case? • “Changes develop over several minutes” – What is “several”? 1, 2, 10, 20 minutes? • “Even when there are mild symptoms initially, there is a potential for progression to a severe and even irreversible outcome” – Do I park my clinical judgment at the door? What do I look for in my clinical assessment? • “Fatalities during anaphylaxis usually result from delayed administration of epinephrine and from severe cardiac and respiratory complications. “ – What is delayed? How much time do I have? What is anaphylaxis? •an acute, potentially

To understand the processes that are responsible for the chronicity of this response and the role(s) of IL-6 in the regulation of airway Th2 inflammation, we compared the responses induced by OVA in sensitized wild-type mice, IL-6 deficient (؊/؊) mice, and transgenic mice in which IL-6 was overexpressed in the airway (CC10-IL-6 mice).

  • Allergens Immunoglobulin E (Ige) Antibodies
    Allergens − Immunoglobulin E (IgE) Antibodies Single Allergen IgE Antibody This test is principally useful to confirm the allergen specificity in patients with clinically documented allergic disease. Therefore, requests for these tests should be made after a careful and comprehensive medical history is taken. Utilized in this manner, a single allergen immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody test is cost-effective. A positive result may indicate that allergic signs and symptoms are caused by exposure to the specific allergen. Multi-allergen IgE Antibodies Profile Tests A number of related allergens are grouped together for ordering convenience. Each is tested individually and reported. Sample volume requirements are the same as if the tests were ordered individually. Panel Tests A pooled allergen reagent is used for each panel; therefore, the panel is reported with a single qualitative class result and concentration. The multi-allergen IgE antibody panel, combined with measurement of IgE in serum, is an appropriate first-order test for allergic disease. Positive results indicate the possibility of allergic disease induced by one or more allergens present in the multi-allergen panel. Negative results may rule out allergy, except in rare cases of allergic disease induced by exposure to a single allergen. Panel testing requires less specimen volume and less cost for ruling out allergic response; however, individual (single) allergen responses cannot be identified. In cases of a positive panel test, follow-up testing must be performed to differentiate between individual allergens in the panel. Note: Only 1 result is generated for each panel. Panels may be ordered with or without concurrent measurement of total IgE.

  • Approaches for Assessing Health Risks from Complex Mixtures in Indoor Air: a Panel Overview by Carol J
    Environmental Health Perspectives Vol. 95, pp. 135-143, 1991 Approaches for Assessing Health Risks from Complex Mixtures in Indoor Air: A Panel Overview by Carol J. Henry,* Lawrence Fishbein,* William J. Meggs,t Nicholas A. Ashford,' Paul A. Schulte,§ Henry Anderson,/' J. Scott Osborne,' and Daniel W. Sepkovictt Critical to a more definitive human health assessment ofthe potential health risks from exposure to complex mixtures in indoor air is the need for a more definitive clinical measure and etiology ofthe helath effects ofcomplex mixtures. This panel overview highlights six ofthe eight presentations ofthe conference panel discussion and features a number ofthe major topical areas of indoor air concern. W. G. Meggs assessed clinical research priorities with primary focus on the role ofvolatile organic chemicals in human health, recognizing the areas where definitive data are lacking. By recogniz- ing many types ofchemical sensitivity, it may be possible to design studies that can illuminate the mechanisms by which chemical exposure may cause disease. The critically important topic of multiple chemical sensitivity was discussed by N. A. Ashford, who identified four high risk groups and defined the demographics ofthese groups. P. A. Schulte address- ed the issue ofbiological markers ofsusceptibility with specific considerations ofboth methodologia and societal aspects that may be operative in the ability to detect innate or inborne differences between individuals and populations. Three case studies were reviewed. H. Anderson discussed the past and present priorities from a public health perspective, focusing on those issues dealing with exposures to environmental tobacco smoke and formaldehyde off-gassing from materials used in mobile homeconstruction.

  • Aeroallergen Sensitization and Allergic Disease Phenotypes in Asia
    REVIEW ARTICLE Asian Pacific Journal of Allergy and Immunology Aeroallergen sensitization and allergic disease phenotypes in Asia Elizabeth Huiwen Tham,1,2 Alison Joanne Lee,1,2 Hugo Van Bever1,2 Abstract Allergic diseases are on the rise in Asia. Aeroallergen exposure is a strong risk factor for sensitization, development and severity of atopic diseases, especially in the Asian paediatric population. Geographical and seasonal variations in aeroallergen sensitization are seen even within Asian countries and changes in aeroallergen sensitization patterns have been observed over time. Some possible reasons include climate change as well as rapid urbanization and improved sanitation which follow socioeconomic development. House dust mite allergy is present in up to 90% of Asian atopic patients, far exceeding that which is seen in Western populations which report prevalences of only 50% to 70%. Pollen and animal dander affect less than 10% of Asian patients as compared to 40-70% of individuals with asthma and allergic rhinitis living in the West, a burden almost equivalent to the dust mite burden in those regions. There is thus a pressing need for preventive measures to reduce dust mite sensitization in Asian children today.

The Milestones provide a framework for the assessment of the development of the resident in key dimensions of the elements of physician competency in a specialty or subspecialty. They neither represent the entirety of the dimensions of the six domains of physician competency, nor are they designed to be relevant in any other context. i Allergy and Immunology Milestones Work Group Amal Assa’ad, MD Evelyn Lomasney, MD Taylor Atchley, MD Aidan Long, MD T.
