| Abstract: | The article discusses an approach of treating anxiety in children who have anaphylactic conditions. The authors suggested that clinicians should use semi-structured interviews such as the Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for DSM-IV: Child and Parent Versions. The authors also suggested that it is an important step in treatment planning to determine the understanding of child and family on the allergic condition and its impact on the child's life. |
