  • Title: Management of Anaphylaxis.
    Author: Lee SE.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Clin North Am; 2017 Dec; 50(6):1175-1184. PubMed ID: 29103454.
    Abstract:
    Anaphylaxis is a severe systemic reaction that can be managed appropriately with expedient diagnosis and treatment. Intramuscular epinephrine continues to be the mainstay of treatment of anaphylaxis; however, it is still underused in the community and in the medical setting. Further education and counseling of patients and health care providers is required to prevent and manage anaphylaxis successfully. In-office management of anaphylaxis includes training of staff, preparedness with the necessary supplies and medication, and an effective action plan.
