Methods We identified all out patient clinic letters with food allergy over one year period (April 201011). After modifying the NICE audit proforma, we collected further information including the professional who referred these children, team reviewing them and management including discharge planning or referral to other specialties. We also collected information on final diagnosis and any referrals made to school/nursery and dietician.
