What is Anaphylaxis?

Anaphylaxis is a potentially life threatening reaction to one or more of many ‘triggers’, such as:

Everyday foods:

  • Nuts, including peanuts.
  • Fish and shellfish.
  • Mink and eggs.
  • Certain fruit.

Medicines:

  • NSAIDs (including aspiring).
  • Antibiotics.
  • General anaesthetic.

Materials and fibres:

  • Contrast dyes.
  • Latex.

Anaphylaxis can also be caused by an indeterminable trigger, which we call idiopathic anaphylaxis.

 

Course content

The Anaphylaxis short course is designed for anyone who needs training for dealing with severe allergic reactions. The course is strongly recommended in high risk environments such as schools, healthcare and food settings.

During the course, we teach you about:

  • Care for the unconscious casualty.
  • CPR.
  • Signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis.
  • Management of anaphylaxis.
