📖About Adrenaline Auto-Injector Training
Adrenaline auto-injector training teaches patients at risk of severe allergic reactions and their caregivers how to correctly recognize the signs of anaphylaxis and use an epinephrine auto-injector in an emergency. Anaphylaxis can progress rapidly, and having both the device and the knowledge to use it immediately can be lifesaving. Training uses a trainer device without a needle so patients and family members can practice the technique safely and repeatedly. A written emergency action plan is provided alongside training so that anyone caring for the patient knows exactly what to do.
