Preface
Anaphylaxis always puts me in mind of a thunderstorm far out at sea. Managing anaphylaxis is rather like attempting to sail a boat safely through the eye of a raging storm. Just like the storm, anaphylaxis may appear suddenly and without warning, terrifying anyone caught up in it. Each step taken must be exactly correct, swift, timely and in the right order, despite the feeling of panic that surrounds such an occurrence. If this panic affects even seasoned health professionals faced with anaphylaxis, just imagine how much more deeply terrified it must make the patient and family members feel. In this frenzied atmosphere, all of us need to stay calm and authoritative, bringing the patient calmly towards safety. The aim of this book is to give you a guidebook and a map to guide you through the choppy waters of anaphylaxis, so that you, too, can act as an expert helmsman to your patients caught up in the storm of anaphylaxis. I would like to add my sincere heartfelt thanks to my distinguished co-author, Nuray Bayar Muluk, for her unwavering enthusiasm, patience, and deep insights. I hope that this book proves to be of great help to you. Best wishes from Eskisehir, Turkey Cemal Cingi
