Transcription
1 Latex Allergy 1
2 What is latex? The term latex refers to natural rubber latex, the product manufactured from a milky fluid derived from the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis. Several types of synthetic rubber are also referred to as "latex," but these do not cause allergic reactions. 2
3 What products contain natural rubber latex? Disposable gloves Surgical masks Airway & IV tubing Syringes Stethoscopes Catheters Dressings & bandages 40,000 consumer products (e.g. balloons, condoms, athletic shoe soles, rubber toys, nipples and pacifiers, etc.) Components of Human Patient Simulators (such as IV tubing, etc.) 3
4 Latex Allergy Latex allergy is a reaction to certain proteins in latex rubber. Health care workers are at risk of latex allergies. For some individuals, exposure to latex products, such as powdered latex exam gloves, can cause a mild to severe allergic reaction. Airborne powder from gloves can cause reactions in some sensitive individuals. 4
5 Persons at increased risk for latex allergies Healthcare workers Individuals with occupational exposure (e.g., from frequent use of latex gloves) Individuals requiring frequent bladder catheterization Individuals with neural tube defects (e.g., spina bifida, myelomeningocele) Individuals who have had multiple surgeries Individuals with multiple allergies (especially to balloons or other latex products) Individuals with a history of anaphylactic reactions during surgery Individuals with allergies to foods such as banana, avocado, chestnut, kiwi, potato, tomato and related foods 5
6 Exposure to Latex Frequent exposure to latex causes one to become sensitized. Sensitization then puts one at risk for allergic reaction. Sensitization occurs through: Direct skin contact; Latex particles dispersed into the air when powered gloves are taken off. 6
7 Latex Allergy Reactions Skin rash and inflammation Hives Flushing Itching Nasal, eye, or sinus symptoms Respiratory irritation Asthma Shock (rare) 7
8 Other Types of Latex Reactions Irritant contact dermatitis: Dry, itchy, irritated areas on skin. Caused by irritation from wearing gloves and by exposure to the powders added to them. Chemical sensitivity dermatitis: Skin rash similar to poison ivy. Results from chemicals added to latex during harvesting, processing, or manufacturing. 8
9 Protection from Latex Exposure and Allergy Use non-latex gloves for activities that will not involve direct contact with infectious material. If you must use latex gloves, use powder-free latex gloves. Do not use oil-based hand creams or lotions with latex gloves. The lotion can deteriorate the gloves. Wash and dry hands thoroughly after removing latex gloves. Clean any areas contaminated with latex dust. Become familiar with protocols for preventing latex allergy. Learn to recognize symptoms of latex allergy. 9
10 What should you do if you think you have a Latex Allergy? If you develop symptoms of latex allergy, avoid direct contact with latex and other latex-containing products until you can see a physician experienced in treating latex allergy. If you have latex allergy, consult your physician regarding the following precautions: Avoiding contact with latex gloves and products. Avoiding areas where you might inhale the powder from latex products used by other workers. Informing your health profession program that you are allergic to latex. 10
11 Avoidance of Latex Is the only means to assure prevention of a latex allergy, and Is the only protection from allergic symptoms for a person who has already developed a latex allergy. 11
12 How is Latex Allergy Treated? Detecting symptoms early, reducing exposure to latex, and obtaining medical advice are important to prevent long-term health effects. Certain medications may reduce allergy symptoms but complete latex avoidance is the most effective approach. 12
13 REMEMBER Immediately report signs and symptoms of a latex allergy or sensitivity to your clinical instructor, preceptor, or supervisor. If you have a known allergy it is important to remember that Latex Contained and Latex Reduced areas do NOT indicate latex free and it is your responsibility to protect yourself. 13
14 Patient/Resident Care Guidelines On admission, ask patients/residents if they have a sensitivity or allergy to latex. Remove all latex containing products from the patient s/resident s room. Follow the health care organization s policy for Latex Allergy. 14
