Food allergy has increased over the past two decades, with a larger
number of patients presenting a myriad of related symptoms and
illnesses to physicians and allied health professionals. The
growing number of patients poses a challenge to health care
providers and confirms the need for developing best clinical
practice guidelines. Based on the Expert Panel Report from the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Food
Allergy: Practical Diagnosis and Management brings to life the
developed guidelines with chapters written by international leaders
in food allergy clinical care, research, and education, including
most of the report's primary authors. Offering practical advice,
each chapter provides clinically relevant information for everyday
diagnosis and management of food allergies and related adverse
reactions to foods. Chapters begin with clinical questions to focus
readers and contain numerous case studies and "Clinical Pearls" to
help formulate best practice approaches to patient care. The text
provides information that is relevant for diagnosis, organ or
diagnosis-specific concerns, daily management, and topics of
importance for patient understanding and management of food
allergies. Chapters cover clinical manifestations, triggers and
cross-reactivity, acute reactions, and skin, gastrointestinal, and
respiratory conditions associated with food allergy. Authors
address diagnostic testing, pharmacologic reactions, allergy
prevention, and the natural history of common food allergies. They
also consider novel approaches to diagnosis and therapy for
immunoglobulin E-mediated food allergy. The final chapter presents
practical resources for physicians and patients, including
materials for advising newly diagnosed patients and resources for
managing food allergies at home, school, camp, restaurants, and
while traveling.
