The multidimensional burden of atopic dermatitis: an update

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease affecting 11% of children1 and 5-7% of adults 2,3 in the United States. Consequences of AD include itching, sleep disturbances, and impairment in physical activity and social functioning, affecting both patients and their families 4. AD may also impact academics and choice of occupation. The total annual burden of AD in 2004 USD was estimated to be $4.228 billion, combining direct and indirect costs of care, but this is likely an underestimate of present day costs 5.
