NCT ID NCT07481019
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether letting patients report their symptoms online can help doctors schedule follow-up visits only when needed. About 250 adults with chronic skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis will either get standard fixed appointments or flexible scheduling based on monthly surveys. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the number of clinic visits while keeping patients engaged.
