Today, we discuss anaphylaxis. We look at the findings from the most recent NAP 6 regarding the incidences of anaphylaxis for specific triggers, presenting symptoms, and factors potentially predicting poorer patient outcomes. We also discuss anaphylaxis management and the anaphylaxis cards jointly developed by ANZCA and ANZAAG.

Feel free to email us at deepbreathspod@gmail.com if you have any questions, comments or suggestions. We love hearing from you!

Thanks for listening, and happy studying.
