Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Anaphylaxis due to prick‐by‐prick testing is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication. Personnel performing testing should be able to recognize and treat anaphylaxis. Adrenaline must be available. In high‐risk patients with a history of anaphylaxis, specific igE with components and a basophile activation test is desirable before skin prick testing.
