Resumen
Objetivo

Determinar el grado de concordancia en los resultados de las pruebas alérgicas cutáneas (prick-test) y la determinación de IgE específica de screening (Phadiatop) en una muestra de pacientes con sospecha de rinitis alérgica (RA).

Material y Método

Estudio prospectivo de 130 pacientes con sospecha de rinitis alérgica, en los que se realizó prick-test y Phadiatop, comparando el grado de concordancia de los resultados de ambas pruebas.

Resultados

Los resultados de ambas pruebas coincidieron en 118 pacientes (89%). Se produjeron falsos negativos y falsos positivos con ambos métodos.

Conclusiones

El diagnóstico de rinitis alérgica se basa en una historia clínica pormenorizada complementada con prick-test. El prick-test se considera la principal prueba diagnóstica en esta patología. En casos seleccionados está indicado completar el estudio con la determinación de IgE específica en sangre frente a los alergenos sospechosos. El Phadiatop es una prueba de IgE específica para múltiples alergenos cuya principal utilidad es como prueba de screening en RA, principalmente a nivel ambulatorio.

Abstract
Aim

To establish the degree of coincidence in the results obtained from allergic skin-tests (prick-test) and the screening determination of specific IgE (Phadiatop) on a sample of patients with suspected allergic rhinitis (AR).

Material and Methods

Prospective study of 130 patients with suspected AR, on whom we carried out prick-test and Phadiatop, comparing the results of both tests.

Results

The results of both tests were similar in 118 patients (89%). There were false negatives and false positives with both methods.

Conclusions

The diagnosis of AR is based on a precise clinical history, complemented with prick-testing. The prick-test is considered the main test for the diagnosis of AR. In selected cases it is indicated to complete the study with the determination of serum specific IgE against the suspected allergens. The Phadiatop test is a specific IgE test for multiple allergens being its main use as a screening test in AR, mainly for outpatient cases.
