Home-Based Oral Immunotherapy With a Baked Egg Protocol.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Hen’s egg (HE) allergy is one of the commonest food allergies in young children with a natural history to resolve, although recent evidence suggests a greater prevalence and more persistent nature. Treatment strategies of allergen avoidance anticipating that the child will grow out of the allergy are being replaced by interventions like oral immunotherapy (OI). The recipes used in HE OI are however in forms of egg not commonly ingested and are therefore considered experimental and not suitable for widespread clinical application.
