Perioperative Anaphylaxis in Children: A Report from the Wake‐Up Safe Collaborative
PEDIATRIC ANESTHESIA(2021)
Abstract
Anaphylactic reactions to antigens in the perioperative environment are uncommon, but they have a potential to lead to serious morbidity and/or mortality. The incidence of anaphylactic reactions is 1:37 000 pediatric anesthetics, and substantially less than the 1:10 000 to 1:20 000 incidence in the adult population. Neuromuscular blocking agents, latex, and antibiotics are the most frequently cited triggers. To date, there is no comprehensive report on perioperative anaphylactic reactions in children in the United States. Using the Wake‐up Safe database, we examined the incidence and consequences of reported perioperative anaphylaxis events.
