Anaphylaxis and Anesthesia: Pearls on Diagnosis and Management, with Dr. Jon Bacon (Dental Anesthesiologist)
Allergic reactions are as nuanced as they are subjective – there are no blanket treatments for anaphylaxis, and each case needs to be observed in isolation. Today we are joined by the Dental Anesthesiologist, Jonathan Bacon, DDS, to walk us through everything we need to know about anaphylaxis diagnoses and treatments when under anesthesia. After learning more about Dr. Jon, we discover what anaphylaxis is (with a more accurate definition from the World Allergy Organization), what causes it, how to identify it, and how to treat it. We discuss the right dosages for anaphylactic treatments, the factors that affect the severity of attacks, comorbidities and triggers to be aware of, and the relationship between hypertension and anaphylaxis. We end with a deeper examination of anaphylaxis treatment options, how to administer them, and the importance of educating patients to ensure that they know how to deal with anaphylactic attacks at home.
