ABSTRACT
Background:
The management of hereditary angioedema has rapidly changed over the past decade. With these changes there has been increased recognition of the unique challenges of diagnosing and managing hereditary angioedema in pediatric populations. The objective of this review was to identify and compare recently published consensus guidelines for the management of hereditary angioedema types 1 and 2 to identify areas of agreement and conflict.Methods:
A MEDLINE database search was performed to identify guidelines that offered guidance on diagnosing or managing hereditary angioedema in pediatric populations. A limitation was placed on guidelines published in the past 5 years to reflect the most recent literature.Results:
Six clinical practice guidelines were included in the analysis. Early detection of disease status, coordination with specialists, and empowering patients with self-administered medications are emphasized, with use of plasma derived C1 esterase inhibitor as first line therapy for aborting attacks. The guidelines are shifting away from attenuated androgens and tranexamic acid for long-term prophylaxis toward medications such as subcutaneous C1 esterase inhibitor, lanadelumab, and berotralstat.Conclusion:
Although some differences exist based on geographic region and health system where an included guideline was published, they have very minimal differences on close review.
