The aim of this study was to assess the impact anaphylaxis has on the QoL and mental health of adults, using validated measures.
This study has shown that anaphylaxis has a significant impact on the QoL and mental health of adults. Adults with anaphylaxis reported greater stress and poorer general QoL in social and environmental domains than norm data. The constant vigilance required to avoid respective triggers, which involves continually assessing risk in their environment, may account for this.
