| چکیده | ||
| Allergic disorders—ranging from asthma and allergic rhinitis to atopic dermatitis, food allergy, and drug hypersensitivity—affect nearly one-third of the world’s population (1,2). Over the past decades, their prevalence has risen steadily, especially in urbanized societies. While the public health and economic implications of these conditions are well known, their significance as a patient safety issue is less frequently emphasized. In daily clinical practice, I have witnessed how allergic reactions, particularly anaphylaxis, can emerge abruptly and turn into life-threatening emergencies. Many such events are avoidable if appropriate preventive strategies are in place (3). Addressing allergies through a patient safety lens is, therefore, both a medical and ethical necessity. | ||
