Pen a 1 Improves Clinical Predictability of Shrimp Allergy Compared to Skin Prick Testing

Conclusions rPen a1>=0.72kU/L and/or shrimp sIgE>=1.12kU/L are useful to predict clinical reactivity in 84% of patients with suspected shrimp allergy potentially obviating the need for an OFC. Since DIT may modulate IgE levels, caution interpreting shrimp sIgE for IT recipients is recommended.
