Epub 2023 Apr 12.ABSTRACTDrug allergies are frequently reported by patients undergoing pre-anesthesia evaluation, potentially resulting in a suboptimal treatment with alternative substances. While about 10% of patients report to be allergic to penicillin, less than 1% have a true IgE-mediated allergy. Multiple factors contribute to this large prevalence, such as misinterpretations of common gastrointestinal side effects as “allergic”, a history of penicillin treatment for infectious mononucleosis resulting in skin rashes, ...

Novel Classification System of Adenoids Based on Appearance and Its Relationship with Drug Therapy
Conclusion: AR was the risk factor for the development of edematous AH. All subtypes of AH responded to montelukast, while there was an additional effect of nasal glucocorticoid in the edematous type. A combination therapy of nasal glucocorticoid with leukotriene receptor antagonist can be recommended for AH patients with AR, patients with edematous adenoids, and/or patients with increased eosinophils in blood routine.Int Arch Allergy Immunol

Perioperative anaphylactic reactions to central venous and pulmonary artery catheters containing chlorhexidine, sulfadiazine, or latex: a historical cohort study
CONCLUSION: Perioperative anaphylactic reactions related to CVCs/PACs containing chlorhexidine, silver sulfadiazine, or latex were rare in this large historical cohort study. We identified 2,937 patients with pre-existing chlorhexidine, sulfa, and/or latex allergies and had CVCs/PACs inserted that contained these substances. Although few cases of perioperative anaphylaxis attributable to these substances were observed in patients with corresponding allergies, the potential for substantial complication exists. Providers should be aware of the potential for these hidden exposures.PMID:36829103 | DOI:10.1007/s12630-023-02403-8
