Anaphylaxis during pregnancy

Krešimir Reiner et al. Psychiatr Danub. 2019 Mar.

Abstract

Anaphylaxis occuring during pregnancy has a potential to cause devastating damage to the unborn baby and the mother. However, majority of adverse outcomes of anaphylaxis during pregnancy frequently affect the neonates rather than the mothers. The negative neurologic outcomes of the fetus are mostly due to delayed caesarean delivery or inadequate doses of adrenaline during anaphylaxis. Most of the current knowledge on this clinical scenario is based on case reports and very few review articles. This is a mini review of the causes, diagnosis and management of anaphylaxis occuring during pregnancy.
