CAMP 2.0 Updates
Since the CAMP 2.0 launch last September we have welcomed almost 55,000 new and returning (1.0) users to the system – our numbers continue to increase daily. Not surprisingly, Friday is the biggest day for new user registrations. The CAMP team continues to act as a resource supporting both members and their patients with questions about CAMP 2.0, and we work hard to incorporate the feedback we receive into the improvements and updates we make to the system. A continued thank you for your patience and support during this transition and going forward as we make CAMP even better. Please read below for important updates and helpful CAMP tips:
Corticosteroid Cross-Reactor Changes
The CAMP Cross-Reactor Committee recently revised how CAMP is programmed to treat steroid groupings. The revisions follow the Baeck Classification system1 and now divide steroids into two groups:
Steroid Baeck Group 1/2: Contains Baeck groups 1 and 2 steroids including budesonide, hydrocortisone, prednisolone, prednisone, triamcinolone, fluocinonide, desonide, fluocinolone, and others.
Steroid Baeck Group 3: Contains Baeck group 3 steroids including betamethasone, clobetasol, desoximetasone, dexamethasone, mometasone, and others.
Additional flexibility allows you to select each of the above groups individually, or select “Steroid Restrictive” to exclude all steroids.
Due to the complexity of steroid cross reactivity, Repeat Open Application Testing (ROAT) is now recommended to confirm the safety of any steroid ingredient. For more information about how individual steroids have been grouped, please see the fully revised Educational Handouts in the CAMP Learning Center: Clobetasol-17-Propionate, Triamcinolone, Tixocortol-21-Pivalate, Hydrocortisone-17-Butyrate, Desoximetasone, Budesonide, and Corticosteroids (general).

New Allergen Print Feature
You now have the ability to print all Educational Handouts associated with a patient’s allergen list at the same time you share the patient’s safe list. Select “Print Allergen Sheets” on the Share Patient Safe List screen to open the print dialogue box. Choose which narratives you would like to include and select “Print” to generate a printable PDF with all narratives combined into one document.
When creating a safe list, please note that you can choose to exclude narratives on the Select Allergen Information Sheets screen. Those narratives you have chosen to exclude will not appear in your patient’s CAMP account or as an option on the Print Allergens Sheet dialogue box.
Nickel-Free Diet Handout Now Available!
The CAMP team is excited to announce that the Nickel-Free Diet handout is now available! When creating a patient Safe List, you have the option to include the diet sheet for any patient with nickel or nickel sulfate on their list on the Select Allergen Information Sheets screen. Because the Nickel-Free Diet may not be indicated for all patients with nickel allergy, the diet sheet will not be automatically included on the list. If you would like your existing patients who have already registered in CAMP to have access to this resource in their accounts, choose the Update & View option and update their current allergen search codes to include the handout. You can also access the diet sheet in the CAMP Learning Center where the Allergen Narratives are found.
We are actively working to complete additional dietary handouts for select allergens in CAMP. Stay tuned for updates!
ACDS Staff Cannot Modify Allergen Lists or Recommend Products
A friendly reminder that ACDS staff does not have access to your patient’s information and cannot modify allergen search codes or make recommendations on the safety of products or ingredients. You can modify your patient’s allergen list in CAMP 2.0 by selecting Update & View. When prompted, enter the allergen search codes your patient is registered under to make any necessary changes to the allergens, cross-reactor groupings, or availability of allergen narratives.
Learn more about creating versus updating allergen search codes here.
