摘要

Abstract Background Early peanut introduction ( EPI ) in the first year of life is associated with reduced risk of developing peanut allergy in children with either severe eczema and/or egg allergy. However, EPI recommendations differ among countries with formal guidelines. Methods Using simulation and Markov modeling over a 20‐year horizon to attempt to explore optimal EPI strategies applied to the US population, we compared high‐risk infant‐specific IgE peanut screening ( US /Canadian) with the Australiasian Society for Clinical Immunology and Allergy (Australia/New Zealand) ( ASCIA ) and the United Kingdom Department of Health ( UKDOH )‐published EPI approaches. Results Screening peanut skin testing of all children with early‐onset eczema and/or egg allergy before in‐office peanut introduction was dominated by a no screening approach, in terms of number of cases of peanut allergy prevented, quality‐adjusted life years (QALY), and healthcare costs, although screening resulted in a slightly lower rate of allergic reactions to peanut per patient in high‐risk children. Considering costs of peanut allergy in high‐risk children, the per‐patient cost of early introduction without screening over the model horizon was $6556.69 (95% CI , $6512.76‐$6600.62), compared with a cost of $7576.32 (95% CI , $7531.38‐$7621.26) for skin test screening prior to introduction. From a US societal perspective, screening prior to introduction cost $654?115?322 and resulted in 3208 additional peanut allergy diagnoses. Both screening and nonscreening approaches dominated deliberately delayed peanut introduction. Conclusions A no‐screening approach for EPI has superior health and economic benefits in terms of number of peanut allergy cases prevented, QALY , and total healthcare costs compared to screening and in‐office peanut introduction.
