Allergology

A Children’s and Adults’ Allergy Center now operates at Therapie House, which is at the same time a Georgian-German integrative medical center and today also a university clinic (clinical base of Tbilisi State University’s Faculty of Medicine)[cite: 261].

The center provides complex diagnostics and professional management of allergic diseases in accordance with modern standards[cite: 262].

Patients visiting the center receive, in one place, consultations by highly qualified specialists, a wide range of laboratory tests (clinical, biochemical, immunological), and comprehensive specific allergological examinations[cite: 263].

Specific allergological diagnostic studies offered include: [cite: 264]

  • - Identification of causative allergens – specific allergy diagnostics for a wide range of allergens: skin prick testing and specific IgE (environmental, plant, food, medicinal, animal allergens) [cite: 265]
  • - Spirometry – examination of lung function (pulmonary function test) [cite: 266]
  • - FeNO testing – measurement of nitric oxide in exhaled air (to assess airway inflammation) [cite: 267]
