Anaphylaxis is a severe, life-threatening, systemic allergic reaction that is almost always unanticipated and may lead to death by airway obstruction or vascular collapse. Anaphylaxis can be triggered by a broad range of triggers. Food is the commonest trigger in children and drugs the commonest in adults. In addition to the environmental influences, studies suggest that a complex of genes affects the anaphylactic response. Anaphylaxis occurs as the result of an allergen response, usually immunoglobulin E-mediated, which leads to mast cell and basophil activation and a combination of dermatologic, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and neurologic symptoms.
