Resumo
Nas últimas décadas tem se observado aumento da prevalência das doenças alérgicas em todo o mundo. Embora a história clínica seja considerada de grande importância na suspeita de uma doença alérgica, resultados falso-positivos podem ser observados quando se utiliza apenas dados da anamnese. Com isso, indicadores mensuráveis utilizados para examinar quaisquer aspectos da doença tornam-se essenciais. A dosagem de imunoglobulina E total (TIgE), assim como painéis que contemplam alérgenos de maior prevalência na população estudada, podem funcionar como testes de triagem e facilitar o futuro diagnóstico de uma doença alérgica, ou na exclusão deste. Nesta revisão, são abordados os diferentes testes de triagem para doenças alérgicas (PhadiatopEuropa®, PhadiatopInfant ®, PhadiatopUSA®) na avaliação de crianças e adolescentes com história médica de alergia. Os testes de triagem não diagnosticam doenças alérgicas. Uma vez positivo, o encaminhamento ao especialista deve ser realizado.

Abstract
In recent decades, the prevalence of allergic diseases has increased worldwide. Although medical history is considered of great importance in the suspicion of an allergic disease, false-positive results may be observed when anamnesis data are used alone. Thus, measurable indicators used to examine any aspects of a disease have become essential. Total immunoglobulin E (TIgE) measurement as well as panels containing allergens prevalent in the population under study may serve as screening tests and facilitate later diagnosis of an allergic disease. This review addresses the use of different screening tests for allergic diseases (PhadiatopEurope®, PhadiatopInfant®, and PhadiatopUSA®) in the evaluation of children and adolescents with medical history of allergy. Screening tests do not diagnose allergic diseases. If positive, the patient should be referred to a specialist.
