Importance of aspirin challenges in patients with NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease

CONCLUSION: ASA challenges have high sensitivity and specificity. In clinical ASA challenge studies, there is a high concordance between a positive history of NSAID hypersensitivity obtained by rhinologists and the measured data of ASA challenge in patients with CRSwNP and comorbid asthma. Therefore, ASA challenge is primarily indicated in patients with an unclear history of NSAID hypersensitivity.PMID:38597968 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-024-01460-9
