Allergy in the elderly: A case note review of referrals to an adult allergy clinic.
Clinical and Experimental Allergy 2018 September
The UK population is ageing and we can expect more referrals to allergy clinics for this age group. 16% of patients to our clinic are aged >60. Compared to younger patients, 3 times as many referrals were for angioedema. Overall, allergy was excluded in 79% of cases. 15% were diagnosed with previously unrecognised allergies, while allergic disease was confirmed in 6%, enabling optimised management. While the differential diagnosis of allergic conditions is wider in older people, assessment in the allergy clinic is helpful and adds value.
