What is Anaphylaxis? Signs, causes and treatment of anaphylaxis. • creative medical studio. • #anaphylaxis #reaction #rashes • Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening allergic reaction that happens very quickly. It can be caused by food, medicine or insect stings. Call 999 if you think you or someone else is having an anaphylactic reaction. • Check if it's anaphylaxis • Symptoms of anaphylaxis happen very quickly. • They usually start within minutes of coming into contact with something you're allergic to, such as a food, medicine or insect sting. • Symptoms include: • swelling of your throat and tongue • difficulty breathing or breathing very fast • difficulty swallowing, tightness in your throat or a hoarse voice • wheezing, coughing or noisy breathing • feeling tired or confused • feeling faint, dizzy or fainting • skin that feels cold to the touch • blue, grey or pale skin, lips or tongue – if you have brown or black skin, this may be easier to see on the palms of your hands or soles of your feet • You may also have a rash that's swollen, raised or itchy. • Follow these steps if you think you or someone you're with is having an anaphylactic reaction: • Use an adrenaline auto-injector (such as an EpiPen) if you have one – instructions are included on the side of the injector. • Call 999 for an ambulance and say that you think you're having an anaphylactic reaction. • Lie down – you can raise your legs, and if you're struggling to breathe, raise your shoulders or sit up slowly (if you're pregnant, lie on your left side). • If you have been stung by an insect, try to remove the sting if it's still in the skin. • If your symptoms have not improved after 5 minutes, use a 2nd adrenaline auto-injector. • Do not stand or walk at any time, even if you feel better. • Treatment for anaphylaxis • Anaphylaxis needs to be treated in hospital immediately. • Treatments can include: • adrenaline given by an injection or drip in your vein • oxygen • fluids given by a drip in your vein • You'll usually stay in hospital for around 2 to 12 hours, but you may need to stay longer. • Before you leave hospital, you'll be given 2 adrenaline auto-injectors to keep in case you have another anaphylactic reaction. • An adrenaline auto-injector is a special device for injecting adrenaline yourself. You'll be told how and when to use it. • You may also be referred to an allergy specialist for tests. • avoid the food, medicine or thing that you're allergic to – for example, if you have a food allergy, check food labels carefully and tell staff at restaurants and cafes about your allergy • carry 2 adrenaline auto-injectors with you at all times • check your adrenaline auto-injector expiry dates regularly and get new ones before they expire • practice how to use your adrenaline auto-injector by using a trainer injector (an injector that has no needle or medicine in it) – you can order one online from the company that makes your injector • teach friends, family, colleagues or carers how and when to use your adrenaline auto-injector • use your adrenaline auto-injector if you think you may have anaphylaxis, even if your symptoms are mild • wear medical alert jewellery such as a bracelet with information about your allergy – this tells other people about your allergy in case of an emergency • do not leave your adrenaline auto-injectors anywhere too hot or cold such as in the fridge or outside in the sun • Anaphylaxis happens when your body has a serious reaction to something you're allergic to. • Allergies that can sometimes cause anaphylaxis include: • foods such as nuts, cows' milk, eggs, fish or sesame seeds • medicines such as antibiotics or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) • insect stings such as wasp and bee stings • anaesthetics • latex (a type of rubber found in some rubber gloves and condoms) • Sometimes it's not known what caused an anaphylactic reaction. • #creativemedicalstudio • #allergic • #allergy • #adrenaline • #steroids • #youtube • #food • #medical • #medicine • Osmosis • Nabil Ebraheim • Khan Academy Medicine • Strong Medicine • Lecturio Medical Videos • #JJ MEdicine • #Armando Hasudungans • #Havard Medical School • Medcram Videos • #Dr Najeeb Lectures • Healthcare Triage • Interactive Biology • Patel Nursing Academy • CUAA School of Nursing - Skills • medical life31 • TCC ADN RN Program: Nursing Skills • RN Instructor • ANM GNM NURSING PRACTICAL ASPEC.. • LEIDY219 • kp online nursing classes • VALENTINA CORDOVA VASQUEZ • Precision Care Medical Sports Perf.. • Siemens • Vidyudabhi • ANATOMY ZONE of Dr. Vakeel k... • Jindal Hospital Fertility C... • YouTube Channel id: • / @creativemedicalstudio
