Importantly, COMCâs feedback of this outcome information to its participating providers is designed to make it relevant for clinical decision-making, program evaluation, and system redesign.
Anaphylactic shock is the result of a generalized allergic reaction. Septic shock is a result of infections which has progressed to a severe state as in septicemia. Neurogenic shock is a result of severe nerve damage that affects the heart and blood vessels.
However, anaphylactoid reactions, unlike anaphylactic reactions, may occur after the first exposure to a substance. Also, anaphylactoid reactions are not allergic reactions because immunoglobulin E (IgE), the class of antibodies involved in allergic reactions, does not cause them. Rather, the reaction is caused directly by the substance.
