Utility of diagnostic tests in the follow-up of egg-allergic children
Clinical and Experimental Allergy, 09/23/09
Dieguez MC et al. – This study is the first to evaluate both tests (SPT and sIgE levels) and all egg allergens to determine the persistence of egg allergy in IgE–mediated allergic children. Measuring the SPT and sIgE levels is useful to predict persistent allergy in these children, especially with the egg white complete extract. An oral challenge should not be performed in egg allergic paediatric patients with either an egg white prick test above 7 mm or a white egg–sIgE determination above 1.3 KU/L, because there is a 90% probability of remaining allergic.
