In this episode of the PFC Podcast, host Dennis speaks with Eric Bauer from FlightBridge ED about the critical topic of anaphylaxis. They explore the importance of understanding anaphylaxis through real-life scenarios, the initial assessment and response required in emergency situations, and the underlying pathophysiology of allergic reactions. The conversation emphasizes the urgency of treatment protocols, particularly the use of epinephrine, and discusses advanced management strategies for patients experiencing anaphylaxis. This episode serves as an essential guide for emergency medical professionals and anyone interested in critical care. This conversation delves into advanced airway management, IV access, and medication protocols in the context of anaphylaxis treatment. The speakers discuss the importance of proactive decision-making, fluid resuscitation strategies, and the need for careful monitoring and adjustment of treatment. They also touch on Kuhn's syndrome, a condition that can complicate anaphylaxis cases, and emphasize the importance of seeking help when needed in critical care situations.TakeawaysAnaphylaxis is a lower frequency type of call in EMS.Initial assessment should focus on the patient's airway and breathing.Respiratory involvement indicates a more severe allergic reaction.Benadryl is not the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis.Epinephrine should be administered promptly in anaphylactic cases.Timing of treatment is crucial; reactions can escalate quickly.Advanced airway management may be necessary in severe cases.Patient positioning and PEEP can aid in respiratory distress.Understanding the pathophysiology of anaphylaxis is essential for effective treatment.Continuous reassessment is key in managing anaphylactic patients. Advanced airway management is crucial in critical situations.Proactive decision-making is essential in emergency care.Fluid resuscitation strategies must be tailored to the patient's condition.Medication protocols should include timely administration of epinephrine and steroids.Monitoring patient response is vital for adjusting treatment plans.Kuhn's syndrome can mimic myocardial infarction in young patients.It's important to be aware of the potential for rebound responses in anaphylaxis.Healthcare providers should be comfortable adjusting medications as needed.Telemedicine can provide valuable support in critical care situations.Continuous education and self-awareness are key in emergency medicine.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Anaphylaxis and Its Importance02:56 Understanding Anaphylaxis Through a Scenario05:50 Initial Assessment and Response to Anaphylaxis09:07 The Pathophysiology of Anaphylaxis11:51 Timing and Severity of Anaphylactic Reactions15:00 Treatment Protocols for Anaphylaxis18:11 Advanced Management Strategies in Anaphylaxis23:20 Advanced Airway Management in Critical Situations26:04 IV Access and Pressor Administration28:58 Fluid Resuscitation Strategies32:02 Medication Protocols in Anaphylaxis36:03 Monitoring and Adjusting Treatment41:27 Understanding Kuhn's Syndrome45:48 Final Thoughts on Anaphylaxis ManagementThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deltadevteam.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more content go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

Anaphylaxis is a serious, systemic hypersensitivity reaction with rapid onset and can be potentially fatal. It is frightening for patients, families and medical providers. Currently, the standard treatment is epinephrine as an injection. At this very moment, we are on the cusp of transforming how we treat severe allergic reactions. If approved by the FDA, a new sublingual form of epinephrine would be the first non-invasive and orally administered epinephrine treatment. Joining us for this episode is Matthew Greenhawt, MD, the Director of the Food Challenge and Research Unit at Children's Hospital Colorado. He specializes in allergy and immunology and is also a professor of pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.   Some highlights from this episode include:  The history of epinephrine  Fears around needles and using an epi-pen  How this new treatment could increase the life-saving capability of epinephrine  Next steps to get the sublingual film into use  For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org. 

Using your auto-injector is NOT like pulling the pin on a grenade! In this episode, we share our experiences with anaphylaxis and how we let fear cloud our understanding of the relief brought by proper treatment, including epinephrine. Anaphylaxis can be scary, but it doesn't have to be. Preparation is key. We discuss the steps we take and the tools we have in place for when a reaction hits. Join us for an open conversation on preparing for the worst case scenario. To learn more about allergy & anaphylaxis emergency plans visit FAACT:https://www.foodallergyawareness.org/food-allergy-and-anaphylaxis/what-is-anaphylaxis/allergy-and-anaphylaxis-emergency-plans/

A Korean study found that anaphylaxis recurrence, affecting 15.6% of cases, is driven by socioeconomic factors and comorbidities, calling for targeted interventions. Australian data revealed a sharp rise in melanoma-related deaths for tumors 0.8–1.0 mm thick, suggesting a need for stricter monitoring and management for these patients. Lastly, the experimental drug BNC210 showed early promise in reducing PTSD symptoms, with significant improvements in both PTSD and depressive symptoms, though sleep benefits were minimal.

Hey Food Allergy Mom, As food allergy parents, it's heartbreaking to hear about tragedies caused by anaphylaxis. It feels personal, like we've lost one of our own. Our hearts break, and it's hard to shake the sadness that comes with knowing such a loss could have been prevented. It's okay to feel this way—it's human. But while we support the families affected and work through our own emotions, we also need to be mindful of how those feelings can shift into fear and anxiety, especially for our own loved ones. Today, we're going to talk about how to manage those emotions, stay grounded, and focus on staying strong together as a community. I'll give you 3 important stats that will hopefully reduce your anxiety PLUS I'll give you positive examples of things we've done as a food allergy family that may seem scary, but have turned out well and are completely doable with the right preparation.  I hope this episode decreases your anxiety and empowers you and your child!

That mortality rate is about the same as 1 in every 333 cases of anaphylaxis.   Of course, we never want to even THINK about being that .3%, but these are important numbers to know because the statistics ARE ON OUR SIDE.    For example, the odds of tragedy from anaphylaxis, if it occurs, are MUCH LESS than the odds of tragedy in a car crash (which is 1 in 93 vs. 1 in 333 for anaphylaxis)**, yet we never think twice about driving!  Instead, we take precautions and use safety measures to make it safer.   * Source: https://www.jacionline.org/article/S0091-6749(13)02738-3/fulltext#:~:text=The%20overwhelming%20major....  ** Source: National Safety Council https://injuryfacts.nsc.org/all-injuries/preventable-death-overview/odds-of-dying/    How Case Fatality Rate is Calculated:  Case Fatality Rate is calculated by dividing the number of deaths from a specified disease over a defined period by the number of individuals diagnosed with the disease during that time; the resulting ratio is then multiplied by 100 to yield a percentage.

Olga Kagan, PhD, RN, FHIMSS, FAAAAI, discusses the new AAAAI online anaphylaxis module designed for patients and the general public. Listen now to learn all about this free tool!

U.S. health officials approved a nasal spray to treat severe allergic reactions, the first needle-free alternative to shots like EpiPen. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it approved the spray from drugmaker ARS Pharmaceuticals Inc. as an emergency treatment for adults and older children experiencing life-threatening allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis occurs when the body's immune system develops a sudden, unexpected reaction to a foreign substance, such as food, insect stings or medications. Common symptoms include hives, swelling, itching, vomiting and difficulty breathing. The device, marketed as Neffy, could upend treatment for the 33 million to 45 million Americans with severe allergies to food and other triggers. Anaphylaxis sends more than 30,000 people to emergency rooms and results in more than 2,000 hospitalizations and more than 230 deaths in the U.S. each year. Of the 6 million prescriptions written for auto-injectors each year, more than 40% are never filled, Dr. Thomas Casale, an allergist at the University of South Florida, told an FDA advisory panel last year. Even when they are available to caregivers, many auto-injectors are used incorrectly, he said. "There's a real unmet medical need for a large portion of the population," he said. Neffy is intended for people who weigh at least 66 pounds. It is given in a single dose sprayed into one nostril. A second dose can be given if the person's symptoms don't improve. The new treatment could be life-changing for people with severe food allergies, said Dr. Kelly Cleary, a pediatrician and director at the Food Allergy Research & Education, a nonprofit advocacy group. Requiring an injection in an emergency is as scary to some children as the allergic reaction itself. Some parents have had to restrain thrashing children to inject them, sometimes causing cuts that require stitches. About 3,500 caregivers a year are injured when they accidentally inject themselves in the hands, ARS said. Neffy is designed to be easy to carry and easy to use, especially for children, said Richard Lowenthal, president and chief executive of San Diego-based ARS. "We don't want fear. There's no needle, there's no pain with this product," he said. "It's basically like spraying saline into your nose." This article was provided by The Associated Press.

What is the gold standard in diagnosing an anaphylactic food allergy? It's not a skin test. It's not a blood test. It's an ingestion challenge.In this episode,Dr. Alice Hoyt discusses the critical role of ingestion challenges when it comes to accurately diagnosing IgE-mediated food allergies. By consuming the suspected allergen under the careful supervision of a board-certified allergist, patients can achieve a precise diagnosis, which is pivotal before embarking on treatment plans like oral immunotherapy or long-term avoidance strategies. She shares valuable insights and tips on how to prepare for an ingestion challenge, ensuring a smooth and reassuring process for both patients and families.Dr. Hoyt also explores the life-changing impact ingestion challenges can have, especially for young children and their parents. Drawing from the groundbreaking LEAP study, she stresses the importance of confidently introducing potentially allergenic foods to children, highlighting how, in some cases, ingestion challenges  provide firsthand safety assurance. Additionally, she touches on the complexities of food allergy skin and blood testing and how these tests should not be considered confirmatory for food allergies. Tune in to learn how ingestion challenges empower food allergy families and, in some cases, confirms that a child is no longer allergic to a food.What's your food allergy question?

Allergic reactions are as nuanced as they are subjective – there are no blanket treatments for anaphylaxis, and each case needs to be observed in isolation. Today we are joined by the Dental Anesthesiologist, Jonathan Bacon, DDS, to walk us through everything we need to know about anaphylaxis diagnoses and treatments when under anesthesia. After learning more about Dr. Jon, we discover what anaphylaxis is (with a more accurate definition from the World Allergy Organization), what causes it, how to identify it, and how to treat it. We discuss the right dosages for anaphylactic treatments, the factors that affect the severity of attacks, comorbidities and triggers to be aware of, and the relationship between hypertension and anaphylaxis. We end with a deeper examination of anaphylaxis treatment options, how to administer them, and the importance of educating patients to ensure that they know how to deal with anaphylactic attacks at home.Key Points From This Episode:Dr. Jon Bacon's professional history and current practice setup. What anaphylaxis is and how we deal with it as healthcare providers. The main causes, signs, and symptoms of anaphylaxis. Assessing the right dosage for anaphylactic treatments.  Age and other factors that affect the severity of an anaphylactic attack.A more accurate definition of anaphylaxis, as proposed by the World Allergy Organization. How Dr. Jon handles patients who develop hypertension while under anesthesia. Comorbidities and triggers to be aware of during anaphylactic episodes.   How the type of allergy influences the anaphylactic attack and the required treatment. What we're looking for from a clinical presentation. How to decipher between isolated hypertension and anaphylactic-induced hypertension. Exploring what happens after an anaphylaxis diagnosis; how to treat it. Mountains Beyond Mountains, Unbroken, painting, Severance, and Top Gun.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Jon Bacon Email — jpbacondds@gmail.com Just Wisdom Teeth — justwisdomteethdc.com/  World Allergy Organization — worldallergy.org/  ‘Perioperative anaphylaxis – management and outcomes in NAP6' — bjanaesthesia.org.uk/article/S0007-0912(18)30401-X/fulltext Severance — tv.apple.com/us/show/severance/umc.cmc.1srk2goyh2q2zdxcx605w8vtx  Top Gun: Maverick — https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1745960/ KLS Martin — klsmartin.com/en/   KLS Martin 35% Discount Code — StuckiFavs Dr. Stucki's KLS Martin Instrument List & Instruction Video — klsmartin.com/dr-stucki-instruments Everyday Oral Surgery Website — everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059
