Digital referral process for suspected perioperative allergy

The Perioperative Allergy Network has developed a digital referral process for suspected perioperative allergy which would facilitate central data collection and help ensure patient safety. Currently piloted at two large NHS Trusts, we are looking for additional participating sites over the next two years to help us understand how the system can be adopted and embedded into existing pathways. If you are interested in becoming a pilot site for the PASS system please complete this form.
