Objective: In this investigation, we aimed to discuss the important aspects of anaphylaxis shock diagnosis and management in the emergency room. Method: PubMed database was used for article selection, and the following keywords were used in the mesh: "anaphylaxis management in emergency room"[Mesh] and “anaphylactic shock management in emergency room"[Mesh]. A total of 20 papers were reviewed and included in the research.
