Comprehensive assessment of atopic dermatitis (AD) control in six brief questions
Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) is a validated, brief and easily scored tool for use in clinical practice and clinical research. Its six concise questions allow patients and physicians to evaluate the different dimensions of patient-perceived AD control.
ADCT can be self-administered by patients or used in routine consultations and is designed to help facilitate meaningful patient-physician discussion on control of atopic dermatitis.
ADCT has been validated for use in adult and adolescent patients (12 years and older) with atopic dermatitis.1,2 A modified version of the ADCT for children with AD aged 8-11 years and another for caregivers of children with AD aged 6 months to 11 years have also been developed,3 and are currently pending threshold validation.3 Materials on this website refer to the adult/adolescent version if not specified.
