Introduction Improving disease awareness and treatment adherence is key for the long-term management of atopic dermatitis (AD). Digital interventions can support patients in disease self-management and adopting a healthier lifestyle through behavioral modifications. We aimed to test the clinical efficacy of a digital program in patients with AD.


Conclusion: Patients with AD are open to and can benefit from a digitally delivered targeted intervention, as demonstrated by significant improvements in treatment adherence and related clinical outcomes.

    Yes, it seems that digital interventions are here to stay and generally well-regarded by patients. Personally, I don't recommend them much unless a patient specifically asks about them since there are so many other things I need to speak with patients about during the office visit. And I prefer face-to-face contact over digital interactions.
