Cows' Milk Allergy

The Cows' Milk Allergy Symptom Scoring Tool - CoMiSS

4 Credits
Description

Shortening the Journey to diagnosing Cows’ Milk Allergy (CMA): CMA is the most common infant food allergy in the first year of life; yet its range of non-specific symptoms make it difficult to recognise, leading to delays in therapeutic intervention. In fact, often the greatest challenge is identifying the condition itself.

Experts, supported by Nestlé Health Science, have introduced a simple to use scoring tool – the Cows’ Milk Related Symptom Score (CoMiSSTM) – enabling primary healthcare professionals to more efficiently interpret symptoms and consider earlier intervention.

CoMiSSTM will significantly aid in raising awareness of CMA to help support in the diagnosis of this common infant allergy.

CoMiSSTM is not an awareness tool.







IMPORTANT NOTICE: Mothers should be encouraged to continue breastfeeding even when their infants have cows’ milk protein allergy. This usually requires qualified dietary counselling to completely exclude all sources of cows’ milk protein from the mothers’ diet. If a decision to use a special formula intended for infants is taken, it is important to give instructions on correct preparation methods, emphasising that unboiled water, unsterilised bottles or incorrect dilution can all lead to illness. Formula for special medical purposes intended for infants must be used under medical supervision.
