Child Respiratory Allergy Screening (IgE)
Child Respiratory Allergy Screening (IgE)
SKU:ALL4
Frequent coughing, wheezing, nasal congestion, or itchy eyes in children can often be linked to allergic reactions. The Child Respiratory Allergy Panel (IgE) screens for common airborne allergens that may trigger respiratory symptoms, helping parents and clinicians identify causes of discomfort and guide effective allergy management.
Why Respiratory Allergy Screening (IgE) Matters in Children?
Respiratory allergies in children can affect sleep, learning, and overall wellbeing. Early detection of allergen sensitivities allows for timely interventions, whether through lifestyle changes, avoidance strategies, or medical treatments. By pinpointing specific triggers, this test supports tailored care to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
What Gets Assessed?

- Alternaria alternata (mould)
- Dog skin flakes (dander)
- Cat skin flakes (dander)

FAQs
Who should consider this test?
This test is ideal for children with frequent sneezing, runny nose, persistent cough, wheezing, asthma, or suspected environmental allergies. It helps detect allergic responses that may trigger respiratory symptoms.
How is the Child Respiratory Allergy Panel carried out?
A simple blood test is performed to measure IgE antibody levels against common airborne allergens such as pollen, dust mites, moulds, and pet dander.
Does this test check for food allergies as well?
No, this panel only targets environmental and inhalant allergens. For suspected food allergies, the Child Food Allergy Panel (IgE) would be more appropriate.
How are results reported?
The results indicate the child’s IgE antibody response to each allergen, showing the degree of sensitisation (mild, moderate, or strong) and helping guide allergy management.
What happens if the results show allergies?
If your child tests positive, a paediatrician or allergy specialist may recommend allergen avoidance, medication, or tailored treatment plans to manage symptoms and improve breathing comfort.
