Hey Emily!
I would love for you to reach out to one of the allergists that I worked/work with still regarding this. She is the drug desensitization guru up here in Omaha. Mostly does them outpatient infusion clinic, however, has done them inpatient as well. She's a wealth of knowledge and did her fellowship at Mayo. Dr. Sara May - smay@unmc.edu
Let her know that Shalah talked with you.

Hi Kristyn,
Thanks for the response! Currently gathering information regarding general best practices for desensitization, and more specifically, how do groups decide when to admit a patient vs. performing outpatient. There is conflicting information in the literature.
Thanks,
Emily
