Patient’s Perspective of Atopic Dermatitis

Krzysztof Szalus, Magdalena Trzeciak

We have conducted a small questionnaire among patients struggling with atopic dermatitis (AD). We were interested in their daily living with AD, problems connected with the disease and cooperation with their medical doctors. We have performed the study on polish people population to assess the current treatment effectiveness and control of AD, AD patients’ problems and the most important thing—cooperation with their health care providers. In 2020 one hundred and one patients took part in the study, answering 12 questions via online question sheet. They were selected randomly all over the country. The most interesting result was the cooperation and understanding for both patient and health-giver is crucial and should be regarded as one of the component of treatment.
