Anaphylactic Shock
Definitions
Urticaria oedematous & pruritic plaques w pale centre & raised edges
Angioedema oedema of deeper layers of the skin. Non-pruritic. May be a/w numbness & pain
Anaphylaxis severe systemic allergic rxn to an Ag. Ppt by abrupt release of chemical
mediators in a previously sensitized patient
Anaphylactoid rxn resembles anaphylactic rxn, but due to direct histamine release from mast
cells w/o need for prior sensitization
Common causes
Stop administration of suspected agent / flick out insect stinger with tongue
