Diagnosis & treatment of allergic diseases

This course will be delivered in a blended format with live online sessions, in person teaching and pre-recorded materials.

In this short course you will study a comprehensive overview of the diagnosis and management of allergic diseases in children and in adults. The course aims to develop your understanding of the clinical features seen in allergic disease which will enable you to conduct appropriate clinical history-taking and diagnostic work-up and arrive at an accurate diagnosis. It also enables you to create a robust treatment plan that can alleviate the symptoms and improve quality of life. Additionally, you will develop skills in the use of medical devices and treatments that will enable you to teach the patients in your care.

This course forms part of a range of short courses in Allergy which are available both to students who are enrolled on the MSc in allergy programme, and as stand-alone CPD programmes for GPs, specialist trainees and consultants, nurses, dietitians and other healthcare professionals wishing to improve their ability to manage allergic patients in daily practice.
