The aim of this study was to compare patients’ and dermato-logists’ viewpoints regarding the impact of atopic der-matitis that is uncontrolled by topical corticosteroids. Data were collected from 348 adult patients who re-sponded to self-administered questionnaires, and 150 telephone interviews with the dermatologists who selected them. Patients and dermatologists reported both convergent and divergent assessments of the impact of atopic dermatitis and its treatment. Notable areas of agreement were regarding the safety of emol-lients, the time required and difficulty of applying to-pical corticosteroids, especially to certain parts of the body. Divergent views involved the perceived efficacy of available treatments and the impact of atopic der-matitis on professional life. A greater understanding of these differences would help dermatologists to opti-mize patient careShow less >
