Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis: When to Treat Versus When to Refer – A Wheel of Knowledge Challenge! is organized by Healio, Vindico Medical Education
Release Date: November 29, 2023
Expiration Date: November 28, 2024
Program Overview:
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, chronic inflammatory skin disease regularly encountered in primary care. Management of mild AD can be straightforward, but treatment for moderate-to-severe disease is challenging due to the high disease burden and significant effects on quality of life, psychosocial function, and academic/occupational performance. The therapeutic landscape for moderate-to-severe AD has evolved and grown significantly in recent years—presenting new opportunities and challenges for clinicians. Ongoing education is needed to guide the appropriate use of newer therapies, indications for specialty referral, and best practices for multidisciplinary management. In this educational activity, faculty will discuss pathophysiology and disease burden, the latest data supporting targeted systemic therapy, and strategies for utilizing multidisciplinary and interprofessional care for patients with moderate-to-severe AD. This program will include Wheel of Knowledge Challenge!, a unique, educational gaming platform.
