(C-1)4-5.2 Describe the pathophysiology involved with hypersensitivity to thepresence of an allergen. (C-1)4-5.3 List possible causes of anaphylaxis. (C-1)4-5.4 Recognize the patient experiencing an allergic reaction.(C-1)4-5.5 Describe the emergency medical care of the patient with an allergicreaction. (C-1)4-5.6 Establish the relationship between the patient with an allergic reactionand airway management. (C-3)4-5.7 Describe the mechanisms of allergic response and the implications forairway management. (C-1)4-5.8 State the generic and trade names, medication forms, dose,administration, action, and contraindications for the epinephrineauto-injector. (C-1)4-5.9 Evaluate the need for medical direction in the emergency medical careof the patient with an allergic reaction. (C-3)4-5.10 Differentiate between the general category of those patients having anallergic reaction and those patients having an allergic reaction andrequiring immediate medical care, including immediate use ofepinephrine auto-injector.

(P-3)4.5-17 Create a management plan to include evaluation and treatment of apediatric patient experiencing an anaphylactic reaction. (P-3)4-5.18 Demonstrate completing a prehospital care report for patients withallergic emergencies. (P-2)PREPARATIONMotivation:Prerequisites:AV Equipment:EMS Equipment:Primary Instructor:Assistant Instructor:The ability to recognize and manage a severe allergicreaction (anaphylaxis) is possibly the only thing standingbetween a patient and imminent death.BLS, Preparatory, Airway and Patient Assessment.MATERIALSUtilize various audio-visual materials relating to allergicemergencies. The continuous design and developmentof new audio-visual materials relating to EMS requirescareful review to determine which best meet the needs ofthe program. Materials should be edited to assuremeeting the objectives of the <strong>curriculum</strong>.Epinephrine auto-injector, epinephrine auto-injectortrainer, alcohol prep pads, and sharps container.PERSONNELOne EMT-Basic instructor knowledgeable in thephysiology of severe allergic reactions and the use ofepinephrine auto-injectors.The instructor-to-student ratio should be 1:6 forpsychomotor skill practice. Individuals used as assistantinstructors should be knowledgeable in allergicemergencies.PRESENTATIONDeclarative (What)I. Allergic ReactionsA. Definition - an exaggerated immune response to a foreign substance(allergen), resulting in a systemic release of histaminesB. Possible causes1. Insect bites/stings - bees, wasps, etc.Module 4-55
