How do you measure the size of a wheal?
Measure the largest diameter, then the one at 90 degrees to the largest diameter for example, 10 x 7 mm.
What is a Positive Test?
A positive skin test reaction is defined as a wheal 3 mm greater in diameter than the negative control reaction (not the positive control), accompanied by surrounding flare (erythema).
Examples of 4+ reactions include:
- a wheal with pseudopod
- a wheal with a satellite (considered more severe than a pseudopod)
