In 30 chapters, the text deals with commercially available chemicals used for patch testing. It is the first book to provide a short and concise explanation for physicians, patients, and employees as how to minimize allergic contact dermatitis when patch testing is completed. The second book of this mini-series, "Patch testing and Prick testing" covers the new standard of patch testing and prick testing procedures in an efficient and practical way. Thus, both of these well-structured books should not be missed by any physician in daily practise when treating patients with dermatological problems.

Review

From the reviews of the first edition:

"This is a handy little paperback book summarizing the products that contain particular allergens, how to counsel the patient on what to avoid ... . The purpose of the book is to educate the dermatologists in performing and interpreting positive patch tests and managing patients with contact dermatitis. The authors do a nice job of accomplishing these objectives. ... Overall, I like this book and think it is a very handy reference ... ." (Patricia Wong, www.doody.com, February, 2004)

"Management of positive patch test reactions is a demanding task based on knowledge about the test substances, the actual exposure and the clinical history. The publication Management of Positive Patch Test Reactions provides excellent support in this process. ... the content is comprehensive and it is strongly recommended to those engaged in patch testing, even to the more experienced dermatologist." (Magnus Lindberg, Acta Dermato-Venereologica, Vol. 85, 2005)
