Anaphylaxis & Allergy Training for Schools & Carers Reviews

Its very easy way of understanding and incredibly well explained with experts , I am very satisfied of learning from IHASCO…

This training was well structured and clear. I didn't find it too long and it emphasised all the main points to remember. The videos were helpful. Subtitles or a BSL interpretation would have been helpful as some deaf staff would not be able to understand it. Overall good training.

Slide 23 suggests that once the AAI has been delivered and a call made to ambulance control an antihistamine could be given, this could mean that the casualty is moved out of a lying down position into an upright position in order to swallow. In all my previous training I have been told to keep the casualty still and not move into an upright position this is because on some post mortem examinations it had been noted that on moving the casualty before the paramedic has arrived can result in a cardiac arrest due to empty ventricle syndrome. In my own delivery of training to staff I always say not to move till assessed by and care taken over by the paramedic.
