What is therapeutic patient education (TPE) and how can it improve self-management and adherence resulting in decreased disease severity and improved quality of life in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD)? In today’s episode, Dr. Sarah Walsh and Kathrin Thormann are discussing a position paper, recently published in the JEADV, which aims to analyse the modalities and efficacy of TPE in AD, to identify specific roles of dermatology nurses, to assess qualification requirements, and to propose practical recommendations. Join us as we discuss some potential activities of nurses in ongoing and future TPE programmes for AD patients.
