Insight Into Dermatology Providers' Perspectives on Approaches to Sensitive Skin: A Pilot Survey
Abstract:
Sensitive skin (SS) is a common patient complaint; however, there are no consistent guidelines to guide dermatologists' approaches to diagnosis and management of SS. Attendees of an international dermatology conference were surveyed to gauge dermatology providers' experiences and perspectives on SS. Survey results suggest that although the definition and diagnosis of SS are ambiguous, SS is increasingly being considered as a unique condition. Patients are commonly seeking dermatologic care for SS; however, dermatologists identified challenges with diagnosis, counseling patients, selecting products or medications, and assessing clinical improvement. These data highlight both a significant demand and a current need for improved provider resources for SS. Citation: McCormick ET, Desai S, Friedman A.

Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...
