UMMC & Hometown Pediatric Dermatology ECHO: Pediatric Atopic dermatitis Part 2: Detailed Topical and Adjunctive treatments

Program Overview: This project aims to improve the treatment of pediatric skin conditions including eczema, acne, birthmarks, warts, and other pediatric skin diseases with the intended target audience of rural healthcare providers in the Upper Midwest.  Since over 30% of visits to primary care for children, a skin-related complaint is noted, and for nearly 60% of those patients, it is their chief complaint; this ECHO aims to expand expertise for pediatricians, family medicine physicians, and APPs in assessing and treating pediatric skin conditions. Primary care professionals join board-certified pediatric dermatologists to discuss best practices and evidence-based approaches to pediatric skin disease and create an ongoing learning collaborative to empower primary care clinicians to deliver high-quality skin disease treatment. Each session consists of a mini-lecture followed by a discussion of attendee-provided patient cases with a pediatric dermatologist. Early access to expert care saves lives, reduces healthcare costs, and improves access to care for children and teens.  There are fewer than 400 board-certified, practicing pediatric dermatologists in the United States, with zero in Montana, North Dakota, or South Dakota; and one in Idaho and Wyoming, in some states, such as Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan there are a few pediatric dermatologists, but they are clustered in urban areas.  The distances are often too far for families to reasonably travel to seek specialty care, given the size of the states and the challenges with winter weather (which lasts for up to 6 months per year).

Topics Covered

  • Atopic Dermatitis
  • Topical treatments for pediatric and adolescent acne
  • Seborrheic Dermatitis
  • Molluscum Contagiosum
  • Moles and Sun Protection
  • Impetigo

Presented by: Sarah Asch, MD
