Abstract
At present, a national consensus or guideline for diagnosing and managing patients suspected of havingpredominantly antibody deficiencies (PADs) is lacking. This consensus is written based on a combinationof scientific literature and comments from the expert panel of Iranian immunologists. A group of clinicalimmunologists reviewed the current consensus, presented their comments at a meeting titled 'First Meetingon the Diagnosis of Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI) by IEI Experts,' and agreed on this consensus. Thisconsensus guideline provides recommendations on the diagnosis, antimicrobial prophylaxis, managementof clinical manifestations, and immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IgRT) for patients with PAD.
