Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Perioperative hypersensitivity reactions are rare but potentially catastrophic events. This review acts to summarize recent recommendations for both immediate and poststabilization management of suspected reactions, alongside practical advice for anaesthetists who may be faced with these events. RECENT FINDINGS Prompt treatment is essential but may be hampered by delay in recognition. This can occur because there are multiple differential diagnoses for the observed clinical signs as well as variations in clinical presentation. Resuscitation is dependent on the use of adrenaline and fluids. Adrenaline should be administered in small, titrated intravenous boluses. Low-dose infusions should be commenced early if the response to boluses is poor. Large volume fluid resuscitation may be required to maintain adequate circulating volume. Chest compressions are recommended when there is evidence of inadequate perfusion, rather than waiting until cardiac arrest is confirmed. Antihistamines and corticosteroids are no longer recommended in the immediate management phase. Once the patient has been stabilized, it is important to obtain serial tryptase concentrations to aid the subsequent clinic investigation. The decision to proceed or abandon surgery will be based on an individual risk-benefit analysis. All cases of suspected perioperative hypersensitivity, including fatal cases, must be referred for formal investigation. SUMMARY There have been recent updates to management guidelines in perioperative hypersensitivity. Treatment algorithms, treatment packs and referral packs can all help the anaesthetist manage these complex cases, aid the subsequent investigation and ensure patient safety in the future.

Dewachter P, Mouton-Faivre C, Dimby SF, Vicaut E, Beloucif S. Association Between Early Patient Characteristics and IgE-Mediated Allergy in the Perioperative Setting. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY. IN PRACTICE 2024; 12:1202-1214.e3. [PMID: 38378094 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2024.02.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early recognition of perioperative anaphylaxis, a life-threatening, usually IgE-mediated, immediate hypersensitivity, is essential, but bedside diagnosis is not always straightforward because clinical presentation may vary. OBJECTIVES To describe early characteristics of perioperative immediate hypersensitivity, with special attention to cutaneous phenotypes, and identify risk factors for IgE-mediated allergy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from adults with suspected perioperative immediate hypersensitivity who were investigated in two academic medical centers. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to evaluate associations among patient, clinical, and paraclinical characteristics and IgE-mediated allergy. RESULTS Of 145 enrolled patients, 99 (68.3%) and 46 (31.7%) were respectively categorized in the IgE-mediated allergy and non-allergy groups. Cutaneous vasoconstriction phenotype (pallor, piloerection, thelerethism, and sweating with or without cyanosis) occurring within minutes (or even 1 minute) of drug exposure was strongly associated with IgE-mediated allergy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 28.02; 95% CI, 4.41-305.18). IgE-mediated allergy was always life-threatening in this setting. Other early factors associated with allergy were low end-tidal carbon dioxide 25 mm Hg or less (aOR = 5.45; 95% CI, 2.39-26.45), low mean arterial pressure 60 mm Hg or less (aOR = 3.82; 95% CI, 1.28-17.31), and early cutaneous vasodilation (erythema, urticaria, and/or angioedema) (aOR = 2.78; 95% CI, 0.73-20.54). Late cutaneous vasodilation after restoration of hemodynamics corroborated the diagnosis of allergy (aOR = 23.67; 95% CI, 4.94-205.09). The best-fit model including three readily available variables (cutaneous phenotype involving the three modalities [reference lack of cutaneous signs], low mean arterial pressure, and low end-tidal carbon dioxide) had an area under the curve of 0.91. CONCLUSIONS Cutaneous vasoconstriction phenotype is associated with the strongest risk of life-threatening allergy and thus may be regarded as pathognomonic of perioperative IgE-mediated anaphylaxis.

Abstract
Perioperative immediate hypersensitivity reactions are rare. Subsequent allergy investigation is complicated by multiple simultaneous drug exposures, the use of drugs with potent effects and the many differential diagnoses to hypersensitivity in the perioperative setting. The approach to the investigation of these complex reactions is not standardized, and it is becoming increasingly apparent that collaboration between experts in the field of allergy/immunology/dermatology and anaesthesiology is needed to provide the best possible care for these patients. The EAACI task force behind this position paper has therefore combined the expertise of allergists, immunologists and anaesthesiologists. The aims of this position paper were to provide recommendations for the investigation of immediate-type perioperative hypersensitivity reactions and to provide practical information that can assist clinicians in planning and carrying out investigations.

Abstract
We describe a case of severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) with severe mitral incompetence due to systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral leaflet (SAM) that was recognised thanks to the immediate availability of transoesophageal echocardiography during the resuscitation of anaphylactic shock. The patient rapidly responded to cessation of the epinephrine (adrenaline) infusion and intravascular volume expansion with intravenous crystalloid. The absence of risk factors for developing SAM/LVOTO serve as a warning to clinicians to consider this diagnosis in all cases of epinephrine non-responsive anaphylactic shock.

Abstract
Haemocoagulase injection is a mixture of purified enzymes isolated from the venom of Bothrops atrox, which is used for the prevention and treatment of haemorrhage. It is a relatively safe pharmacological agent that does not require a skin test prior to administration. However, following a literature search, 14 reported cases of anaphylactic shock caused by haemocoagulase injection were identified, including one lethal case in China. Using SDS-PAGE and protein identification, four primary components in haemocoagulase injection were characterized, including one metalloproteinase, which may be a thromboplastin-like enzyme, and two serine proteinases, which may be thrombin-like enzymes. Administering concentrated haemocoagulase injections failed to provoke a positive skin reaction in allergic patients. Basophil activation tests revealed that haemocoagulase injections did not upregulate cluster of differentiation 63 or C-C chemokine receptor type 3 expression. These findings suggest that haemocoagulase injection may cause fetal anaphylaxis. Although it is difficult to determine a clear conclusion without being able to evaluate the patients that underwent haemocoagulase injection-induced shock, it is unlikely that the venomous components of haemocoagulase injection cross-react with common allergens in allergic patients. It is possible that haemocoagulase injection-induced anaphylaxis is caused by its additive components, such as mannitol and succinylated gelatin.

Abstract
Anaphylaxis is an uncommon but important cause of serious morbidity and even mortality in the perioperative period. The Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANZCA) with the Australian and New Zealand Anaesthetic Allergy Group (ANZAAG) have developed clinical management guidelines that include six crisis management cards. The content of the guidelines and cards is based on published literature and other international guidelines for the management of anaesthesia-related and non–anaesthesia-related anaphylaxis. The evidence is summarised in the associated background paper (Perioperative Anaphylaxis Management Guidelines [2016] www.anzca.edu.au/resources/endorsed-guidelines and www.anzaag.com/Mgmt%20Resources.aspx ). These guidelines are intended to apply to anaphylaxis occurring only during the perioperative period. They are not intended to apply to anaphylaxis outside the setting of dedicated monitoring and management by an anaesthetist. In this paper guidelines will be presented along with a brief background to their development.

Abstract
Perioperative anaphylaxis is a unique condition as a result of the additive cardiovascular effects of anesthetics on the cardiovascular disturbances of anaphylaxis. It occurs mainly in adulthood, primarily follows anesthetic induction, and for the most part, is an IgE-mediated pathomechanism. Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) and antibiotics are the main culprit drugs, while latex is now infrequently involved. The Ring and Messmer scale is a useful tool for demonstrating the clinical severity of perioperative immediate hypersensitivity and guiding its management. Grades III and IV are life-threatening and are referred to as anaphylaxis. Three different clinical patterns of grade III may be observed, where cardiovascular collapse is the cardinal sign. Grade IV presents as cardiac arrest. The initial diagnosis is presumptive, whereas the etiological assessment is linked to the clinical presentation, tryptase levels, and skin test results. Since anaphylaxis presents with significant hypovolemia and vasoplegia, aggressive fluid therapy and epinephrine are the cornerstones of management. Whenever possible, anesthetic discontinuation is also recommended. Scientific evidence in favor of preemptive therapeutic strategies to prevent anaphylaxis in the operative setting is lacking.

Abstract
The prevalence of anaphylaxis occurring during pregnancy is approximately 3 cases per 100,000 deliveries. The management of anaphylaxis occurring during the third trimester of pregnancy may be challenging because of the additive effects of aortocaval compression and cardiovascular disturbances of anaphylaxis. In this review, we identify the clinical signs of anaphylaxis occurring during labor and cesarean delivery, discuss the more common allergens that cause anaphylaxis during this clinical setting, and develop a rational approach to the identification of the offending allergen. We also suggest strategies for the management of anaphylaxis occurring during the third trimester of pregnancy, including the prompt administration of epinephrine and emergency cesarean delivery in cases of severe reactions. Evidence is limited to case reports and extrapolation from nonfatal and fatal cases, interpretation of pathophysiology, and consensus opinion.
