Frequently Asked Questions
I'm allergic to rubber and latex products. Should I tell my anaesthetist?
Yes. Latex allergy is an increasingly common allergy that is usually not serious. However, if you think you have a latex allergy you should tell your surgeon and your anaesthetist promptly. Many latex and rubber products are used in the theatre setting. Informing your team as early as possible will allow them to see that these products are removed so your exposure to them is minimized.
