Clinical Toolkit

Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can occur at any age.
Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically.
Healthy skin helps retain moisture and protects you from bacteria, irritants and allergens. Eczema is related to a gene variation that affects the skin's ability to provide this protection.

ALLEVIATE Atopic Dermatitis: Cutting-Edge CME

Our ALLEVIATE Atopic Dermatitis Initiative is an online CME tool that aims to provide clinicians with new strategies to improve standards of care for AD. Our goals are multifold:

Describe pathophysiological findings that have informed the selection of new therapeutic targets.
Identify best practices for assessment and diagnosis of AD in adults, accounting for biomarkers, phenotype/genotype, comorbidities, and disease burden.
Review the clinical profiles and mechanisms of action of emerging agents for AD treatment.
Explain how comorbidities and barriers to adherence play a role in treatment choice.
Discuss patient-centered health care management teams and the respective roles of each team member.
