Diagnostic Study
Summary
Study start date: March 18, 2023
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.To improve accuracy and take out human error opportunities, Hippo Dx developed S.P.A.T., an automated skin prick test. This study will provide a comparison between manual and automated skin prick test in allergic and non-allergic individuals with a panel of common inhalant allergens. The primary endpoint is to compare the accuracy of S.P.A.T. to detect sensitization to common aeroallergens compared to a manual skin prick test (SPT). It is a prospective monocentric study that will include 120 study participants.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Adults (18-65y) with presence or absence of self-reported symptoms of inhalant allergy will be included.
