    Anaphylactoid reactions can be triggered by anesthesia and contrast media. New, safe complement blocking agents are needed, as current options are limited and often unsuitable for surgical patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Anesthesiology

    Context:

    • Anesthetic agents and contrast media can activate the complement system.
    • This activation may lead to anaphylactoid reactions, posing risks during medical procedures.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the need for effective and safe complement blocking agents.
    • To discuss the limitations of current therapeutic options for preventing complement-mediated reactions.

    Summary:

    • Complement activation by anesthetics and contrast media can cause anaphylactoid reactions.
    • Current treatments like steroids and antifibrinolytics have limitations.
    • There is a lack of ideal intravenous complement inhibitors for surgical settings.

    Impact:

    • Addresses a critical gap in managing perioperative adverse reactions.
