NCT ID NCT03684343

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study filmed consultations between dermatologists and infants under 6 months old with atopic dermatitis (eczema). Researchers analyzed the videos to identify specific behaviors that might indicate discomfort, since standard itch assessment scales don't work for babies this young. The goal was to develop better ways to recognize and measure discomfort in these infants.
