Key Points on Anaphylaxis Definition and Criteria
Anaphylaxis requires exposure and re-exposure to a trigger, leading to a rapid inflammatory response. The diagnostic criteria for anaphylaxis focus on a constellation of symptoms and the precipitating event. Criteria like the NIAD/FAN or SAMPSAN criteria help identify likely anaphylactic events, emphasizing skin involvement, respiratory compromise, reduced blood pressure, or persistent GI symptoms.
