Patient Care Activities
The patient care activities in the Division of Allergy and Immunology include over 2,000 outpatient visits each year and the care of over 700 patients with Asthma. We offer inpatient and outpatient consultations for asthma, food allergy, drug allergy, and other allergic diseases. The division offers pulmonary functions tests, allergen skin tests, food provocation studies and allergy immunizations.
The goals of the Division of Allergy and Immunology
at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center are to conduct basic
and clinical studies into the causes and best treatment of allergic
disorders and research focused on airway responses to allergen
provocation, mechanisms of eosinophil trafficking and recruitment to
the lung and gastrointestinal trace as well as genetic pre-disposition
toward sensitization and allergic inflammatory response.
