Video Summary
Anaphylaxis is an acute, generalized, multi-systemic allergic reaction to an antigen such as a bee sting. Its symptoms can range from mild pruritus and skin flushing to severe respiratory distress and cardiovascular collapse. Anaphylaxis can lead to rapid deterioration, and without treatment, it can lead to respiratory failure and cardiovascular collapse, and then death.
