Topical Treatment for Atopic Dermatitis (NCT06244212)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Medication adherence is a poorly studied phenomenon that challenges both patients and physicians. 50% of individuals with chronic disease are not adherent to their medication regimen. Within the United States, non-adherence to medical treatment leads to approximately $100 billion in hospital admission costs. While the issue of adherence is not limited to any particular field of medicine, non-adherence occurs in approximately one-third to one-half of dermatological patients. Non-adherence is of importance as it is a significant cause of treatment failure, resulting in worse quality of life, worse health outcomes, and increased insurance costs.
