In our Allergy Service we diagnose and manage children with a range of allergies including food, skin, drug and respiratory allergies. Services We work closely with other hospital departments plus adult allergy services and laboratories to provide a range of services. Specialist allergy nurses do supervised food challenges most days on our Research and Medical Treatment Lounge Offer advice to parents, schools and nurseries about managing food allergies EpiPen training Management of drug and immunisation reactions Work closely with the Dermatology and Respiratory departments and hold parallel clinics for children with food allergy and eczema Provide expert dietetic advice See children with recurrent urticaria and angioedema unrelated to food exposure We are currently developing a paediatric allergy network for Yorkshire and hope to launch a desensitisation service later in the year. Visiting the Allergy Service When a patient visits us we take a detailed history and may perform skin prick testing to help diagnose allergy. On occasion a blood test may be required. If a diagnosis is made, we provide allergy plans and advice on things to avoid and how to manage future reactions. A child is regularly reviewed in the allergy clinic while there are ongoing allergy concerns. Children may be able to see several allergy related specialists at the same appointment. Food allergies A dietician is available in almost all outpatient allergy clinics to help with avoidance advice, supplements and special weaning diets for infants. If there comes a time when we feel a child has ‘grown out’ of their food allergy then we perform a food challenge in hospital. These are carried out most mornings on the day care unit by nurse specialists.Common conditions covered by a Food Sensitivity Test
