Background: Implementing allergy testing among children with a reported history of penicillin allergy could be challenging, particularly in developing countries with limited resources. This study screened and risk-stratified the likelihood of true penicillin allergy among children labeled with penicillin allergy in Jordan.
Methods: A web-based survey, completed by parents, assessed history, type, and severity of penicillin allergic reactions, including age at diagnosis, symptoms, time to the reaction, reaction's course and resolution, and received medical evaluation/testing.
Objective: To assess the perception of obstetricians and pediatricians about risks of COVID-19 to pregnant women and possible complications in newborns.
Methods: A structured 27-item online survey was sent via social media messaging to obstetricians and pediatricians from public, academic, and private sectors in Jordan between March 23-30, 2020. Descriptive statistics were used to represent numbers and percentages of participants' responses to survey items.
