General Description
Specialised services for allergy include (i) specific disorders (defined later) and (ii) allergic disease (including asthma, rhino-conjunctivitis, urticaria, angioedema and eczema) where this is severe, multi-system, not controlled or where an allergic aetiology is suspected. This includes the more complex cases and those requiring special facilities for investigation and management that are only available in specialist centres e.g. facilities required for challenge testing and immunotherapy; in particular, severe multi-system allergic disease, anaphylaxis, food, drug and venom allergy.
