• Pediatrician encounter 1 out of 10-15 patient with skin problems in OPD
• Generally they understand how to diagnose and deliver basic management
• There are many things that is not direct
• Related to “Atopic March”: § As first step
• Around 75-80% will develop allergic rhinitis in later life
• Around 50% will develop asthma

• more dry lesion • more chronic itch scratch lichenification • Recurrence acute erythema, plaque
infiltrate, papules dan erosion • Location in hand, feet, wrist & ankle • Lesion in flexural antecubital & popliteal main sign
William Criteria
Basic feature (obligatory) • Itchy skin
• Skin symptoms in flexural regions & neck (cheeks in children < 10 years)
• Asthma / allergic rhinitis (or atopic diseases in close relatives in children < 4 years)
• Dry skin during the last years • Visible eczema in flexural areas (or on cheeks and/or
forehead in chlidren < 4 years) • Eczema starting before age 2
Additional features
Diagnosis : Itchy skin + minimal 3 of the additional features
ASSESING DISEASE SEVERITY
• Developed by ETFAD on 1993
• Maximum score is 103
•0-34 MILD
•35
-69 MODERATE

SEVERE
Pediatrician do not practice this
Modified Qualitative Scoring for AD – Developed by Prof. Thiru THIRUMOORTHY
Classification of Severity in the Clinic to guide the Intensity of Treatment required
Episodic Localised Flexural (2 or less flexures)
Episodic Extensive Flexural
Persistent Extensive Flexural
Persistent Extensive Flexural & Non-flexural
Generalised Atopic dermatitis – childhood
Generalised Atopic dermatitis – adulthood
Redness – None, Mild, Moderate, Severe Swelling(edema) – None, Mild, Moderate, Severe Oozing / crusting – None, Mild, Moderate, Severe Scratch marks(excoriation) – None, Scattered, Disseminated, Severe Skin thickening (lichenification) None, Mild, Moderate, Severe
Asses the most dominant sign found
None=0; Mild=1; Moderate=2; Severe=3
• Clinical impression of the extend of the lesion • Recurrent and persistent lesion
Standard Treatment: skin hydration, emollient, avoid irritant, identify and
avoid aggravating factor
Systemic Therapy (e.g: Cyclosporin A) or UV therapy
TCS moderate-super potent and/or TCI
TCS mild-moderate and/or TCI
DA severe,recalsitran
DA moderate-severe
DA mild - moderate
Dry Skin Only

TCS: topical corticosteroid ; TCI: topical calcineurin inhibitor
1. Education and empowerment of patients and caregiver(s) 1. Eczema school/eczema camps
2. Avoidance and modification of environmental trigger factors 1. Lifestyle modification 2. Avoidance of skin injury 3. Rebuilding and maintenance of optimal barrier
function 4. Clearance of inflammatory skin disorders 5. Control and elimination of the itch–scratch cycle

Recognize trigger factors Use of standardize lists ( house dust mite,
chemical substance, 5 food)
Clearance of inflammatory skin disorders Use of Topical Corticosteroid (TCS)
Control and elimination of the itch–scratch cycle Oral antihistamine

It could be an easy or hardest part History taking---taking time
Allergy tests --- are not in straight causal relationship (positive result doesn’t translate as the cause of AD, negative result is often misleading)
The patient (and family) should have discipline to avoid trigger factors Develop a relationship with the family
Severity of
AD
Inhalant and/or food allergen
Food allergen only
Mild 15% 20%
Moderate 18% 26%
Severe 20% 45%

The wise ways to choose corticosteroid
Correct indication and know the contraindication Choose the appropriate potency

Need to address concerns regarding steroid phobia
If used correctly, AEs such as suppression of adrenal function, diabetes mellitus, and moon face
Low potential for skin atrophy with mometasone and fluticasone in children/adults

• Acute• Chronic (maintenance): intermittent, week end, hot
spot, has proven to control inflammation in recalcitrant cases
A number of defects in innate cutaneous immunology may explain the high rate of cutaneous
colonization with Staphylococcus aureus in AD
• This led to the clinical concept that patients with high numbers of colonizing S. aureus can benefit
from combination treatment with corticosteroids and antimicrobial treatment (Diprogenta®)
Improving eczema with anti-inflammatory regimen decreases staphyloccocal colonization.
TCIs=topical calcineurin inhibitors; TCS=topical corticosteroids

• Atopic Dermatitis is an important step in allergic march in children
• Stepwise management also apply in children, with emphasis on triggering factors management
