About the Podcast
Eczema is an increasingly common condition that is often managed in the primary care setting. It usually presents early in life and is often viewed as a minor condition. However, this belies the reality that for many sufferers, eczema can be a debilitating chronic condition. Ongoing management can be complex, time-consuming, and expensive, with patients and their families experiencing physical, mental, emotional, and financial burdens.
This podcast covers:
-
The impact and burden of eczema on individuals and families in Australia.
-
Some of the challenges that health professionals are facing in treating patients with eczema.
-
Some practical advice that health professionals can take home including clinical tips and suggested resources to use with patients.
-
We will also be introducing the QUM Alliance eczema program and the educational activities that will follow in the coming months.
