Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about repetitive anaphylactic reactions in food allergic patients and to compare the frequency of repetitive reactions between different elicitors in food allergic patients. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is there an elicitor specific difference in the occurrence of anaphylactic reactions once the elicitor has been identified and the patient received counselling about its avoidance? Participants will answer questionnaires via a link they will receive via e-mail at baseline and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after inclusion in the study.
This research study is testing a new way to look for the early stages of anaphylaxis. Eligible participants will have a small monitor (transepidermal water loss) placed on the forearm during a food challenge (for peanut allergies). This monitor continuously records the amount of water lost through the skin. In a previous study the team learned what values are associated with an anaphylactic reaction. These values are called "stopping rules." This study is looking at whether it can use these new stopping rules to end the oral food challenge before a person may show any symptoms.
This is a phase II randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial that aims at evaluating the safety and tolerability of oral encapsulated fecal microbial transplantation therapy (MTT) in peanut allergic patients. In this research the investigators would like to learn more about ways to treat peanut allergies. The primary objective is to evaluate whether MTT with antibiotic pretreatment can increase the threshold of peanut reactivity during a double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge from <=100 mg peanut protein to 300 mg after 28 days of MTT /placebo therapy and 4 months post therapy initiation.
The overall aims of this study are to demonstrate that treatment with PVX108 immunotherapy has an acceptable safety profile and is effective for reducing clinical reactivity to peanut protein in children and adolescents with peanut allergy.
Allergy to Hymenoptera venom is one of the main causes of anaphylaxis in adults, and is less common in the paediatric population. It can be severe or even fatal. Despite the use of an emergency kit, including an adrenaline auto-injector (AAI), at present only hymenoptera venom immunotherapy (VIT) is effective in preventing subsequent severe systemic reactions. Recurrence during the 5 years following cessation of VIT is about 10-15 percent. Studies evaluating longer-term efficacy are scarce. At the University Hospital of Angers, hundreds of patients are treated each year, and its allergology unit has been providing VIT for over 15 years. The purpose of this stufy is to evaluate VIT efficacy among patients who were treated with VIT and ceased VIT from 2005 to 2019, at the university hospital of Angers.
The Anaphylaxis Registry aims to assess data in a standardized form about symptoms, triggers, cofactors and therapy management from patients who experienced an anaphylactic reaction. This should improve diagnosis and long-term management of these life-threatening allergic reactions.
BACKGROUND: Anaphylaxis is the most severe form of allergy that rapidly affects multiple body systems and can be deadly. The highest incidence of anaphylaxis is in children and adolescents. In Canada, approximately every 10 minutes there is an Emergency Department (ED) visit for food allergy, and up to 80% of anaphylactic reactions in children are triggered by food. The ambiguity in how physicians manage anaphylaxis adds a huge burden to health care and further contributes to ED crowding. Current Canadian and international treatment guidelines universally recommend that all patients present to the ED for a prolonged period (6-24 hours) of in-hospital monitoring after initial reactions have been treated, to increase detection of biphasic anaphylaxis (BA). BA is a second wave of symptoms after initial resolution. These guidelines are based on poor or little evidence and have unintended negative impacts on patient safety and quality of life. Furthermore, this 'one-size fits all' approach to care leads to wasteful resource utilization that provides low value care. OBJECTIVE: The main objective of the study is to derive a clinical prediction rule that identifies children with anaphylaxis who are at risk of BA. METHODS: This prospective multicenter cohort study will enroll 1682 patients from 7 pediatric EDs that are members of the Pediatric Emergency Research Canada (PERC) network. We will enroll patients < 18 years of age presenting to the ED with an allergic reaction that matches the diagnostic criteria of anaphylaxis. Research assistants (RA) present in the ED will screen, obtain consent, and prospectively collect all study data. The Research Assistant or Research Nurse will follow patients during their ED visit and ascertain, in conjunction with the medical team, if the patient developed biphasic anaphylaxis in the ED. A standardized follow-up survey conducted within 2-5 days of ED or hospital discharge will determine if a biphasic reaction occurred following ED disposition. We established an advisory council comprised of end-users and community partners external to the project team to monitor project milestones. STUDY TEAM: We have established an international multidisciplinary team of experts in pediatrics, emergency medicine, allergy/immunology, research methodology and statistics, and knowledge translation. Our team is supported by the PERC network. EXPECTED OUTCOME: Providing the best evidence-based, value care at the lowest cost is a moral and ethical imperative. Therefore, in alignment with national and international research priorities, we propose to develop a robust prediction model for BA. This model will address a significant gap in current knowledge and practice, with anticipated benefit for patient care and health system efficiency worldwide. This trial will generate novel, clinically relevant data on optimal ED management of children with anaphylaxis that integrates best value care with patient safety.
Anaphylaxis is a severe life-threatening reaction following exposure to an antigen. Its incidence is progressively increasing in the general population over years, especially among children. The diagnosis can be difficult, and recommendations for follow up and prescription for an emergency kit are rarely provided after emergency visit. The Investigators will evaluate the management of pediatric anaphylaxis and clinical signs of allergy in the pediatric emergency department of Montpellier University Hospital
Prospective monocentric study designed firstly to estimate the proportion of patients who tolerated the continuation of the COVID-19 2nd injection (absence of anaphylactic manifestations). secondly, to know the proportion of definite anaphylactic reactions in cases of suspected anaphylaxis after the first administration of a COVID-19 vaccine the very complete allergological explorations with both the clinical side, skin tests and biological tests will allow us to highlight the responsibility or not of the components of the vaccine,in particular of the excipients (PEG2000, PS80 and tromethamine) in anaphylactic reactions to COVID-19 vaccines A biological collection will be set up during this clinical study in order to study the immunological mechanisms; the effector cells and the signalling pathways involved in these reactions.
The FARE Patient Registry will serve as a prospective, observational food allergy reporting system that stores detailed health and other basic information about patients' real-world experiences with food allergies, to encourage open sharing of de-identified data and participation in clinical trials. The FARE Patient Registry intends to make and support scientific discoveries by enabling the food allergy community to participate directly in research.
