Topical Treatment for Atopic Dermatitis
Study Overview

Detailed Description
Unlike most modes of medication administration, topical medications do not have a standardized method of dosage administration] Although qualitative administration measures exist, these measures are often arbitrary and not quantifiable (i.e., "a fingertip"). In such cases, inappropriate dosing (i.e., using too much or too little) is an essential cause of treatment failure, and measurements of adherence for topical medications should consider the amount of medication administered. In a study analyzing the response to treatment in psoriatic patients, patients who received a standardized dose of topical calcipotriol achieved a more significant decrease in mean Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) (47%) compared to patients who were not standardized (17%, P<0.0001). Moreover, over two-thirds of psoriatic patients deemed initially poor responders in the standardized regimen group were considered responsive to treatment after further consideration.
Given topical options' low cost, efficacy, and excellent safety profiles, they are the first line treatment option for mild-to-moderate Atopic Dermatitis (AD) treatment. This study will aim to assess differences in the amount of medication dispensed in two groups of patients with atopic dermatitis. The first will undergo a brief educational demonstration by a trained professional to highlight the appropriate amount of topical medication to dispense for their disease involvement. The second group will be a control group and receive the same medication; however, the Participants will receive standard of care education (verbal and written instructions) only. Data from the two groups will be collected and analyzed to measure trends in dosing (i.e., if the correct dosage quantity and frequency was dispensed).

Change in Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Scores
Time Frame: Baseline and Day 7
|
The IGA is a five-point scale that provides a global clinical assessment of AD severity ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 indicates clear, 2 is mild, 3 is moderate, and 4 indicates severe AD.
A decrease in score relates to an improvement in signs and symptoms.
