Goals and Learning Outcomes
Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially deadly allergic reaction that occurs suddenly when a sensitized person is exposed to an allergy-causing substance (Lieberman et al., 2015). If left untreated, an anaphylactic reaction can lead to death in less than 30 minutes (LoVerde et al., 2018). The goal of this course is to provide nurses in acute care facilities with guidelines to identify and respond to anaphylactic reactions.
 

After taking this course, you should be able to:

  • Identify causes, symptoms, and diagnostic criteria for an anaphylactic reaction.
