To fill the gap in patient reported picture on quality of life in severe atopic eczema in Europe, in 2017 EFA interviewed 1189 patients from 9 countries on their Quality of Life (QoL) and economic impact on their severe atopic eczema. Though this survey, also a genuine Patient Reported Outcome Measurement (PROM) tool was born: Atopic Eczema Score of Emotional Consequences (AESEC©).
The report ‘Itching for Life: Quality of Life and costs for people living with severe atopic eczema in Europe’ brings life this data, the true impact of severe atopic eczema and it was launched during the first ever European and Global atopic eczema day.
