First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how caring for a child with mild to moderate eczema (atopic dermatitis) affects caregivers' work and family life. About 100 Canadian caregivers will answer questionnaires about missed work, reduced productivity, and family impact. The goal is to better understand these burdens to improve support and healthcare decisions.
