what are the two types of type I (anaphylactic) reactions

systemic anaphylaxis

localized anaphylaxis

New cards
11

systemic anaphylaxis is otherwise known to be a

anaphylactic shock

New cards

an anaphylactic shock/ systemic anaphylaxis reaction is the result of when an…

individual sensitized to an antigen is exposed to it again

circulatory collapse

death

New cards
14

what is a systemic anaphylaxis reaction/ anaphylactic shock usually treated with

epinephrine

New cards
15

a localized anaphylaxis is usually associated with

ingested or inhaled antigens

New cards
16

localized anaphylaxis reaction symptoms are usually dependent on..

route of entry

New cards
17

give three examples of localized anaphylaxis reactions

hives

hay fever

asthma

New cards
18

type II reactions are also refereed to as … reactions

cytotoxic

New cards
19

type II (cytotoxic) reactions undergo activation of … by the combination of … or … antibodies with an antigenic cell
