Early introduction of baked egg (BE) in allergic patients in the first 2 years of life.
2015
Methods 22 children were included: 18 with history of immediate reaction and 4 sensitized to egg (EW sIgE > 50 KU/L). All 22 underwent open OFC with BE performed in 3 days. Day one: OFC with cookies (brand containing egg). Tolerant patients incorporated cookies and food containing egg traces into their diet. A second challenge with home-breaded chicken was performed a week later. Regular consumption was advised for tolerant kids and 15 days later they were challenged with a serving size of home-made cake containing 3 eggs. All children continued regular ingestion and were periodically controlled. Factors including SPT and sIgE levels were used to determine a subsequent challenge with less-heated-egg.
