Addressing barriers to emergency anaphylaxis care: from emergency medical services to emergency department to outpatient follow-up.
CONCLUSION: The panel recommended that allergists and emergency physicians continue to work in partnership, that allergists be proactive in outreach to emergency care practitioners, and that easy-to-access educational programs and materials be developed for use by emergency medical systems and emergency department practitioners in the training environment and in practice.

High Usage of Complementary and Alternative Medicine among Turkish Asthmatic Children.
In conclusion; the prevalance of reported CAM use among Turkish asthmatic childrenwas found to be high (66 %), with herbal medicine being the most popular modality. The results of this study shows that CAM use becomes more prevelant among asthmatic children from families with low income. It will be increasingly important for physicians who care for allergic children to be aware of high CAM usage. PMID: 26547709 [PubMed - in process]

An update on oral immunotherapy for the treatment of food allergy
Food allergy is an important public health concern, affecting 10% of infants, 5–6% of children and 2% of adults in westernized countries. Current management involves food avoidance, education of patients and carers in the emergency management of allergic reactions and in some cases provision of an adrenaline autoinjector. Oral immunotherapy (OIT) has recently been explored as a potential treatment for food allergy. This review will discuss mechanisms of oral tolerance and summarize clinical and immunologic effects of OIT.

Food allergy needs assessment, training curriculum, and knowledge assessment for child care
More than half of preschool-aged children are enrolled in child care in the United States. Roughly 8% of children between 3 and 5 years of age have a food allergy. Child care center workers (CCCWs) are important caregivers who frequently encounter food allergies, but little is known about their education and understanding of food allergy and anaphylaxis.

Is there a role for telemedicine in adult allergy services?
Summary Telemedicine refers to the application of telecommunication and information technology (IT) in the delivery of health and clinical care at a distance or remotely and can be broadly considered in two modalities: store‐and‐forward and real‐time interactive services. Preliminary studies have shown promising results in radiology, dermatology, intensive care, diabetes, rheumatology and primary care. However, the evidence is limited and hampered by small sample sizes, paucity of randomized control studies and lack of data relating to cost‐effectiveness, health‐related quality of life and patient and clinician s...

Social media and the allergy practice
Social media services have taken the world by storm, becoming an integral part of the daily lives of billions of people. They are used widely to connect with friends and family members and, increasingly, to educate and recruit patients and to stay up-to-date with the new developments in allergy and immunology. Communication is a central part of health care delivery, and the use of social media in allergy and immunology practice will continue to increase. There are inherent risks in social media use by health care workers related to breaches of patient confidentiality, professionalism, and privacy.

Comparing the compliance to a short schedule of subcutaneous immunotherapy and to sublingual immunotherapy during three years of treatment.
CONCLUSION: The findings of this study confirm that involving the patient in the choice of the route of administration is associated to a satisfactory compliance to AIT. In particular, more than 70% of patients treated with a short schedule of SCIT completed the three-years course of treatment that is recommended for AIT, while this goal was reached by 54% of SLIT treated patients.

P013 Evaluation of education, attitudes, and practices in drug allergy documentation
Allergy documentation is frequently incomplete and/or inaccurate in the medical record. Little is known about the educational background of the individuals updating the medication allergy record, thus we assessed the educational background, attitudes and practices of healthcare providers updating medication allergies.

Improvement in Quality of Life (QOL) in Pediatric Patients with Food Allergy Associated Disease After Initial Clinic Evaluation
The Pediatric QOL InventoryTM (PedsQL) survey measures health-related QOL in children with acute and chronic health conditions. The aim of this study was to determine the QOL for pediatric patients with an evaluation of food allergy associated disease 1 and 2 years after their initial clinic visit, which included education about rescue medications and food allergy action plans.

Understanding Food Allergy Education Needs in Early Childhood Schools
Food allergy (FA) is a significant health concern affecting 5.6 million children in the US1 that typically presents as a child is introduced to new foods. The nine most prevalent food allergens among younger children are milk, peanut, egg, tree nut, shellfish, soy, fin fish, wheat, and sesame.1 Since dietary diversity tends to increase around the time children enter pre-K, it is critical early child care providers have the information necessary to manage existing or new food allergy reactions.
