Boguniewicz M, Nicol N, Kelsay K, Leung DY A multidisciplinary approach to evaluation and treatment of atopic dermatitis. [Journal Article] Semin Cutan Med Surg 2008 Jun; 27(2):115-27.
Atopic dermatitis is a common, complex disease that frequently follows a chronic, relapsing course. The disease can impact the quality of life (QOL) of patients and families to a significant degree. Patients and caregivers may focus on unproven triggers at the expense of proper skin care. A multidisciplinary approach is needed to comprehensively evaluate triggers and response to treatment, address confounding factors including sleep disruption, and educate patients and caregivers.
