Study Notes

Anaphylactic shock is an allergic reaction that occurs after a second exposure to an antigen.
The body releases specific antibodies that bind to the antigen and cause the release of autacoids.
Autacoids cause vascular and cellular changes that can vary in severity.
Local symptoms include skin redness, hives, and itching.
Generalized symptoms include laryngeal edema and bronchospasm, which can be life-threatening.
Immediate cutaneous reaction can be treated with promethazine 50mg IM.
Bronchospasm can be treated with epinephrine 1:1000 every 5-10 min until crisis ceases, followed by hydrocortisone 100mg and promethazine 50mg (IM or IV).
Papules usually do not represent a threat to the patient's life.
Treatment should be given until medical help arrives.
Anaphylactic shock can be prevented by avoiding the allergen.
