TLDR
There is no universal agreement on the definition of anaphylaxis or the criteria for diagnosis, so representatives from 16 different organizations or government bodies, including representatives from North America, Europe, and Australia, to continue working toward a universally accepted definition.Abstract:
There is no universal agreement on the definition of anaphylaxis or the criteria for diagnosis. In July 2005, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease and Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network convened a second meeting on anaphylaxis, which included representatives from 16 different organizations or government bodies, including representatives from North America, Europe, and Australia, to continue working toward a universally accepted definition of anaphylaxis, establish clinical criteria that would accurately identify cases of anaphylaxis with high precision, further review the evidence on the most appropriate management of anaphylaxis, and outline the research needs in this area.read more

TL;DR: The medicolegal, demographic and histopathological characteristics of a series of sudden deaths which were investigated for anaphylaxis at the Spanish National Institute of Toxicology and Forensic Sciences over a 17-year period indicate a predominance of men, older age (≥50 years) and death in a health care setting (one-third of cases).

Fatal and Near-Fatal Anaphylactic Reactions to Food in Children and Adolescents
TL;DR: Six children and adolescents who died of anaphylactic reactions to foods and seven others who nearly died and required intubation were identified and the failure to recognize the severity of these reactions and to administer epinephrine promptly increases the risk of a fatal outcome.

Fatalities due to anaphylactic reactions to foods.
TL;DR: Fatal anaphylactic reactions to foods are continuing to occur, and better characterization might lead to better prevention, and peanuts and tree nuts accounted for more than 90% of the fatalities.

Clinical features and severity grading of anaphylaxis
TL;DR: A simple grading system and definition of anaphylaxis has potential value for defining reaction severity in clinical practice and research settings and appears to be the major determinants of reaction severity.
