The Atopic Dermatitis Clinic as an Entry Point for Community Outreach in Asthma, Missed Immunizations, and Vitamin D Deficiency
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease with pruritus as one of its main features.
Because of the symptomatic nature of their condition, pediatric patients with atopic
dermatitis may preferentially seek care in the subspecialty dermatology clinic while falling
behind in visits to their primary care provider. This cross-sectional study in patients
attending the Dermatology Clinic at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin will screen for common
conditions associated with atopic dermatitis and subsequently treat or refer patients for
appropriate care. The investigators hypothesize that Milwaukee County pediatric patients
with atopic dermatitis will have a high prevalence of asthma needing treatment, missed
immunizations requiring catch-up, and vitamin D deficiency necessitating replacement
therapy.
