We performed skin-prick tests (SPT) for 8 food and inhalant allergens on 55 infants (between 3 months and 2 years of age) with atopic dermatitis (AD) at their initial visit to our allergy clinic. SPT results were compared with those of radioallergosorbent tests (RAST) and the severity of AD symptoms. We also administered a questionnaire-based survey of 46 patients mothers to see how they evaluated SPT compared to blood tests. SPT for egg white had the highest positive rate (91%) and far exceeded that for other allergens. More than two allergens showed positive in more than half of the patients, and about 30% of them showed positive reactions to more than three allergens. Concordance rate between SPT and RAST was 78.6%. Patients showing positive reactions to multi-allergens tended to have more severe AD symptoms. Mothers appreciated the SPT test and felt that quick results for multi-allergens was the greatest advantage of SPT. More than 90% of the mothers wanted the allergic status of their next children to be evaluated with SPT. Especially, more than 30% of the mothers preferred SPT than RAST as initial screening test. As SPT is harmless, easy to administer even in infancy, and has different advantages for those of RAST, this method deserves further re-evaluation as a means of identifying allergic status especially among infants.
