Testing teicoplanin allergy with your own blood
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to check if you are allergic to the antibiotic teicoplanin using your own blood serum. It aims to help doctors know for sure if you had a severe allergic reaction during a past surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- You must have had a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) during anesthesia where teicoplanin was given.
- You must be able to temporarily stop medicines that can interfere with skin tests (like antihistamines or certain antipsychotics).
- You cannot be pregnant.
- You cannot have a blood-borne virus (like hepatitis B, C, or HIV).
- You cannot have a high baseline mast cell tryptase level that needs more investigation.
