Abstract

Between 1989 and 1995, a 12-fold increase in latex allergy was documented amongst our patients. Similar findings have been noted elsewhere. Increase in type I allergies to latex has become an international problem. The issues associated with latex allergy are described, including those posed by the ubiquitous nature of latex in medical equipment, and in commonplace domestic objects. The potential for allergic patients to cross react to a variety of fruits or plants is an added problem for sensitized patients. This paper concludes that the universal introduction of powder-free surgical gloves with low protein content would be a very important measure in the prevention of acquired latex allergy.

1型乳胶过敏和空气致敏问题。
在1989年到1995年间,我们的病人中乳胶过敏增加了12倍。其他地方也有类似的发现。对乳胶的I型过敏的增加已经成为一个国际问题。与乳胶过敏相关的问题被描述,包括那些由乳胶在医疗设备中无处不在的性质,并在普通的家庭物品。过敏患者可能对多种水果或植物产生交叉反应,这对过敏患者来说是一个额外的问题。因此,普遍推广低蛋白无粉手术手套是预防获得性乳胶过敏的重要措施。
