Event Details

Free Anaphylaxis webinar – affecting more than 4 million Australians, anaphylaxis is the most severe form of allergic reaction and is life threatening if incorrectly treated.

Do you know what the most common triggers for allergic reactions and anaphylaxis are or how to differentiate between an allergy and anaphylaxis?  Is there a role in antihistamines to treat anaphylaxis?  Who should receive Adrenaline, and what is the best way to give it to them?  What is the difference between Anaphylaxis and Refractory Anaphylaxis, will it change the treatment course for your patients?

A recent federal committee inquiry identified that “anaphylaxis continues to be mismanaged with many people treated suboptimally”. If you are finding yourself unsure of the answers to these questions, or looking to get a rapid update in the assessment and treatment of anaphylaxis, join us for this free 1 hour webinar where we explore a coronial investigation looking at a case of Anaphylaxis with current treatment recommendations from the recent resuscitation guideline updates.

This webinar is suitable for all clinicians including GPs, Practice Nurses, Immunisers, Paramedics, Perioperative Nurses, Interventional Radiologists/Radiographers and Critical Care Nurses.
