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: These guidelines aim to provide evidence‐based recommendations for the recognition, risk factor assessment, and the management of patients who are at risk of, are experiencing, or have experienced anaphylaxis, and to prevent future episodes by developing personalized risk reduction strategies including, where possible, commencing allergen immunotherapy.

Paediatric emergency department anaphylaxis: different patterns from adults
TL;DR: The first reported incidence figure for paediatric anaphylaxis ED presentations in Australia is less than that reported in adults in the same local population, however, the incidence of generalised allergic reactions of 9.3:1000 was greater than in the adults.

Clinical observations on the pathophysiology and treatment of anaphylactic cardiovascular collapse.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that adrenaline is the drug of first choice in management and that colloid solutions are preferable to crystalloid solutions in volume replacement in patients with anaphylactic shock.
