Abstract:
Psoriasis can have a profound impact on a patient, interfering in all aspects of life. Therefore, measuring the impact of disease and the effects of treatment must include both physiologic measurements as well as health-related quality of life tools. Psychosocial evaluation of patients at risk allows for early interventions that will promote positive patient outcomes and compliance with the treatment pathways.
