PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
While guidelines regarding the management of AD in children have been published, variability persists in practice. Treatment inconsistencies and the chronic and relapsing nature of AD can lead to frustration for patients, family, and caregivers when managing AD. This program will focus on providing AD caregivers an update on recent pathophysiological findings that drive new therapeutic targets; reviewing severity and diagnosis of AD; and discussing the clinical profiles of existing and emerging agents, with focus on treatment individualization.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Apply updated diagnostic guidance for pediatric and adolescent patients with moderate-to-severe AD and use severity assessments to inform management decisions
- Review the clinical profiles and mechanisms of action of newly approved and emerging systemic/biologic agents for the treatment of pediatric and adolescent patients with moderate-to-severe AD
- Explain the benefits associated with patient centered, team-based shared decision-making approaches for the management of moderate-to-severe AD in children and adolescents
TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for US-based pediatric/adolescent dermatologists, allergists/immunologists and other health care professionals who diagnose and manage pediatric/adolescent patients with moderate-to-severe AD.
