Increasing Emergency Department visits for anaphylaxis in very early childhood: A canary in the coal mine.

This is the first study to suggest an increase in the incidence and severity of ED anaphylaxis presentations in children aged <2 years. Increased awareness of specific characteristics in this age group is required to facilitate timely recognition and optimal management. Further large-scale studies are warranted to also understand underlying environmental drivers and find prevention strategies to reduce the burden of disease.
