An algorithm for the diagnosis and management of IgE‐mediated food allergy, 2024 update.

The European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) has released updated clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and management of IgE-mediated food allergy. The guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for clinicians treating patients with suspected food allergies. The guidelines emphasize the importance of a detailed clinical history, including dietary history, in reaching an accurate diagnosis. They also outline various diagnostic tests, such as skin prick tests and specific IgE tests, and recommend oral food challenges when necessary. The guidelines also address management strategies, including dietary advice, treatment plans for allergic reactions, and the potential use of immunomodulatory treatments. [Extracted from the article]
