Abstract
We have designed a flowchart for the diagnosis and management of severe anaphylaxis. This case report highlights the potential for chlorhexidine to be a source for the development of refractory anaphylactic shock. We suggest that ECMO may save the lives of patients with severe bronchospasm and refractory anaphylactic shock secondary to chlorhexidine.
