Perspective Chapter: Management of Allergic Diseases during Pandemic

By Öner Özdemir and Emine Aylin Yılmaz

Over the recent time period, pediatric allergy clinics across the world have markedly changed their practice because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nowadays, clinics are not inclined to accept a patient demanding a new procedure / therapeutic modality during pandemic. All allergic diseases require continuous management and treatment, and their socioeconomic burden has been increasing worldwide. In this chapter, the aim is to focus on allergic diseases management during pandemic. During this time, patient follow-up, patient management, and diagnostic tests are real challenges. Limited face-to-face consultations and as much as use of telemedicine are currently seen as the major issues in the allergy practice. Face-to-face examination and treatment should be preferred only in vital situations. During COVID-19 pandemic, patient education, which is the most important step in the treatment of allergic diseases, has started to be done online. The prevailing opinion in the allergy community is that the treatment should not be interrupted, or dose reduction should not be made. According to the guidelines, it is appropriately recommended to carefully calculate the profit and loss of the treatment on a case-by-case basis.
