Natural Rubber Latex Allergy

AMA Guides® Newsletter, 2002
Abstract Natural rubber latex (NRL) allergy is discussed in the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), Fifth Edition, in Section 8.5, Natural Rubber Latex Allergy, and refers to an IgE-mediated immediate hypersensitivity reaction to one or more protein allergens in latex devices, especially gloves. Among health care workers,

Natural rubber latex allergy

Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 1999
Rubber is an important industrial and consumer product encountered in many household items and medical devices. Whereas the chemical additives used in its manufacture are well recognized as a cause of delayed-type hypersensitivity (allergic contact dermatitis), it is only during the past decade that immediate-type allergy to natural rubber latex (NRL ...

Management of natural rubber latex allergy

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2002
Issues of impairment, compensation, and disability are appropriately directed at health care workers with latex allergy and occupational asthma or anaphylaxis who may not be able to re-enter a work environment with ambient exposure to latex proteins. The following stepwise approach for managing a high-risk health care worker with natural rubber latex ...

Natural rubber latex allergy and asthma

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2001
Allergic responses to natural rubber latex (NRL) continue to be reported. In adults, the major exposure is in the occupational setting, especially in relation to NRL glove use by health care workers. Issues addressed over the past year include improving diagnostic methods for NRL allergy and characterization of NRL allergens relevant to various ...

Diagnosis of natural rubber latex allergy

Clinical Immunology Newsletter, 1996
The accurate diagnosis of a latex-allergic individual begins with a comprehensive clinical history. Atopy, food allergies, hand dermatitis, and temporal relationships between allergic symptoms and natural rubber product exposure are risk factors that increase the suspicion of latex allergy.

The utilisation of latex reclaim rubber in natural rubber

Die Angewandte Makromolekulare Chemie, 1994
AbstractScrap latex products contain rubber hydrocarbon of very high quality, that is only slightly crosslinked. A novel economic technique for converting such latex waste into a processible material is developed. This paper reports the effect of adding this latex reclaim to natural rubber.
