A comparison of five ways to measure atopic dermatitis severity in adults

British Journal of Dermatology Jan 13, 2020

Silverberg JI, et al. - Experts correlated how a group of 602 US adults with atopic dermatitis (AD) answered 6 different surveys to assess their disease severity using data from the AD in America study. To investigate the severity of atopic dermatitis, they examined the Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), Patient-Oriented Scoring AD (PO-SCORAD) total score and objective and subjective sub-scores, and Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)-itch. They noted that all these tools did a great job but PO-SCORAD did the best job of telling how severe the AD was, and how much AD harmed quality of life and mental health. They think that these are valid enough to evaluate how severe AD is in clinical practice, while there were some issues with the validity of these tools.
