S2E17 - Early egg introduction prevents infant allergy
Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!
Current ASCIA guidelines recommend introducing solids—including cooked egg—to all infants between 4–6 months to achieve a 40% relative risk reduction in allergy development. This episode explores the NHMRC Level II evidence that consumption, not avoidance, is key. We cover the OSCE-essential prerequisites: the infant must be ≥ 4 months and already tolerating other solids like cereals or fruits. Learn the step-by-step introduction—starting with a tiny taste and having oral antihistamines ready. Perfect for IMGs wanting to avoid critical errors with high-risk atopic infants.

Pro Tip: In your OSCE, always confirm the child is tolerating other solids before recommending egg. This shows the examiner you prioritise the infant’s developmental readiness and safety.
