Abstract

A favorable outcome of anaphylaxis depends on the rapidity of adequate initial management and epinephrine injection. However, few data on the management of anaphylactic reactions are available. The aim of this study was to investigate the management and awareness of anaphylaxis to foods by mean of an Internet-based survey.
