Abstract Aim Coeliac disease (CD) can remain undiagnosed due to absent/atypical symptoms. We evaluated screening for CD in undifferentiated paediatric patients in the emergency department (ED). Methods Subjects were all patients presenting to a children's hospital ED during the study period who had blood taken. Plasma remaining after routine care was tested for tissue transglutaminase IgA (tTG IgA) and deamidated gliadin IgG (DGP IgG) antibodies.
