Paramedic Review: Anaphylaxis

We review one of emergency medicine's most dynamic and rapidly evolving emergencies. From the cascade of immune system chaos to the critical decision-making moments in treatment, this course reveals why some allergic reactions turn deadly and others don't. Through real case discussions, you'll learn why epinephrine timing is everything, what to do when one dose isn't enough, and how to handle the patient who's heading toward cardiovascular collapse. Learning Objectives: 1. Analyze the immunological cascade of anaphylaxis to predict and identify life-threatening manifestations. 2. Differentiate between early, late, and refractory anaphylaxis presentations to guide appropriate intervention strategies. 3. Apply evidence-based treatment protocols including proper epinephrine administration, fluid resuscitation, and airway management for the crashing anaphylactic patient.
