Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
'OnderHUIDs' is an educational program (Department of Dermatology, University Hospital, Gent) for patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. We want to stimulate the patient to actively participate in their therapeutic approach by enhanced self care. We call the hypothesis that this program will help the patients learn to cope with their disease and to be loyal to their treatment, which will result in a better quality of life, better clinical outcome and cost effectiveness.
