1 GP Patient Pathway for Infants under 1 year of age with Cows Milk Protein Allergy (Non IgE Mediated) Infant suspected with (non IgE) after an allergy focused clinical history has been completed (see appendix 1). Start infant on a hydrolysed infant formula and milk free diet if appropriate. If infant breast fed, mum will require a milk free diet (mum might also require Calcium and Vitamin D to be supplemented). Please refer to prescribing guidelines for infant formula choice and further guidance. Consider rechallenge if response** / diagnosis is unclear OR refer to paediatrician if symptoms do not fully resolve Dietitian Dietetic Telephone review * Milk free Group Education * Note: Cow s Milk Protein Allergy now includes those previously described as having Cow s Milk Protein Intolerance GP to complete Referral pro-forma to Paediatric Dietetics (appendix 2) (appenservice Diagnosis confirmed and/or no medical concerns Infant responded to 2-6 week trial of cow s milk elimination diet Specialist Paediatric Dietitian (RDH) to assess pro-forma Complex History and Diagnosis or not fully responded to hydrolysed cows milk free infant formula Requires Consultant Paediatrician assessment Refer back to GP/Health Visitor for advice e.g. Lactose intolerance, overfeeding, mild reflux, colic, general infant feeding advice Refer directly to consultant paediatrician if infant has: -severe faltering growth, -severe reflux, -unclear presentation Refer to Paediatric Allergy clinic (RDH) if: -multiple food allergy -anaphylactic reaction -Significant IgE mediated Telephone review at one year old* and discharge if appropriate Consultant Paediatrician appointment Telephone review at months old (if required) and Discharge back to GP* Ongoing consultant paediatrician hospital care with dietetic support if required Note * Dietitian Date can refer produced: back to June consultant 2016 (updated paediatrician March 2018) at any point in pathway Review date: March 2020 ** Please see Author appendix Paediatric 4 for CIG patient (Infants advice Dietetics on Dept) rechallenge to confirm diagnosis if required Version 7.0 THIS PATHWAY SHOULD BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE GUIDANCE ON THE APPROPRIATE USE AND PRESCRIBING OF INFANT FORMULA IN PRIMARY CARE
2 Appendix 1 Allergy Focused History The most important part in diagnosis of allergy is the history. This requires taking an Allergy focused history: Please ask for occurrence of all of these symptoms. IgE mediated (acute onset) Skin Pruritus Erythema Acute urticaria (localised/ generalised) Acute angioedema (face, eyes, lips) Gastrointestinal Angioedema of lips/tongue/palate Oral pruritus Colicky abdominal pain Vomiting and diarrhoea Respiratory Upper respiratory (nasal itching, sneezing, rhinorrhoea, congestion) Lower respiratory (cough, wheeze, chest tightness, shortness of breath) Non IgE mediated (Delayed onset) Skin Pruritus and erythema Atopic eczema Gastrointestinal Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease Loose/frequent stools Blood and/or mucus in stools Abdominal pain Infantile colic Constipation Food refusal or aversion Peri-anal redness Pallor/ tiredness Faltering growth (with one or more of above) The timings of any reactions or symptoms need to be recorded in relation to possible allergen exposure. The following should also be identified: Identify allergen - e.g. Food, cow s milk -?first exposure?previous exposure - known allergen, other allergies Identify atopic tendency Wheeze, eczema, Identify strong family history parents, first degree relatives with asthma, hay fever, food allergies, other known allergies. Diagnosis can be diagnosed by a suggestive history and the following: IgE mediated/ immediate onset: Exclusion of cow s milk from diet leads to cessation of symptoms Typical symptoms can be confirmed by skin prick test weal size >3mm (these can be arranged by referral paediatric allergy clinic). There is no need to take routine bloods (e.g. specific IgE levels for milk) to aid in diagnosis unless there is uncertainty about diagnosis or symptoms appear atypical. In such cases a referral to paediatric allergy clinic may be indicated for further assessment. Non IgE mediated/ delayed onset symptoms: GI symptoms - milk exclusion for at least 2 weeks and assess symptoms which should improve Severe eczema and treatment resistant eczema with a clear history of milk being a likely contributing factor - Milk exclusion 2-6 weeks then reintroduction and assess symptoms on reintroduction.
