Core Tip	This is a retrospective study evaluating parents’ knowledge of the indications and use of adrenaline auto-injectors in children with anaphylaxis. The state of mind of parents towards the use of the device during anaphylactic episodes in terms of stress, anxiety, comfort, and confidence with the use of the adrenaline auto-injector (AAI) were also evaluated. The study concluded that training and education on how to use the AAI are important, but the psychological status of these parents should not be overlooked, and that sufficient psychological support should be provided in order to assist them to overcome stress and anxiety.
