Abstract

Anaphylaxis is a systemic hypersensitivity reaction that can be life-threatening. Though skin and respiratory symptoms are common, cardiovascular complications; including atrial fibrillation (AF); account for most fatalities (1). Prompt intramuscular epinephrine administration remains the cornerstone of management, significantly reducing morbidity and mortality, whereas delays increase the risk of severe or biphasic reactions (2).
