Systemic Analyphaxis-Shock• Within secs of second exposure to drugs, venoms or
specific foods (peanuts).• Mast cells degranulate.• GI tract –increased fluid (edema), increased peristalsis
= severe diarrhea and vomiting.• Lungs- this is life threatening . Every time the person
exhales, SMC constrict causing further decreased diameter of bronchi, increased mucous secretion and swelling of connective tissue closes airways completely. Within minutes they cant take a breathe in = asphyxiation.

If you suspect that you or someone you are with is having an anaphylactic reaction, inject epinephrine immediately. The shot is given into the outer thigh and can be administered through light fabric. Rub the site to improve absorption of the drug. An Epi Pen kit is shown.
Epinephrine antagonist of histamine and causes EC tight junction to re-formation and SMC relaxation.

The first generation antihistamines (e.g., trade names Benadryl, Chlor-Trimetron, and Dimetapp)
bind to histamine receptors, preventing the allergic response. Dosages vary depending on
the medication.

Asthma
• Mild to severe –lower airways .• Can cause permanent damage because of
eosinophil involvement in lower bronchi. Eosinophils also possessing high affinity receptors for Ig E.
• Eosinophils produce leukotrines which recruit and activate neutrophils to make proteases that carve up and damage tissue.

The prevalence of asthma has been increasing since the early 1980s for all age, sex and racial groups.• higher among children than adults • higher among girls than boys • higher among blacks than whites
BRONCHODILATORS dilate the small airways to increase airflow. Long-acting bronchodilaors are given prophylactically to prevent asthma attacks, and may last up to 12-hours. Rapid-acting bronchodilators have effects that last 3-4 hours and are used to relieve a sudden attack. Rapid-acting bronchodilators may also be used as a preventative in some cases, as before exercising to prevent exercise induced asthma.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY medications are used to prevent and/or relieve airway inflammation, thus reducing the patient's susceptibility to a sudden attack. Most of these medications are steroids, although there are some widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications.
LEUKOTRIENE MODIFIERS are oral medications that interrupt the body's allergic response, thus preventing attacks in some patients. They are more effective in patients with allergies than in those with chemical sensitivity.
NEBULIZERS and NEBULIZED MEDICATIONS are used not only by EMS and medical facilities, but are not uncommon in home use. Basically the same medications as are supplied in inhalers, nebulization usually results in a more rapid response to the medications

Effects of Mis-matched blood transfusion
• Ig M binds to RBC and complement or innate cells lyse the RBCs in mass.
• Free hemoglobin goes to kidney and is converted to bilirubin.
• Bilirubin is toxic and is deposited in skin and liver and brain capillaries.
• Jaundice, severe anemia, liver failure and coma can result.

Dr. Vincent Freda
• Took Sing Sing prisoners (male) and injected them with different blood types.
• Identified a D antigen, a minor antigen that is T cell dependent and evokes a Ig G response, but only if Ig M to major blood group antigens hasn’t occurred.
• Developed Rhogam , recombinant Ig G to D antigen. Injected after each pregnancy.
