Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial, multisystem disease, and interactions among biologic, genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors affect the course of the disease. Research suggests that the multidisciplinary care of people with AD may improve disease severity, quality of life, and adherence, especially for patients with refractory disease. This program reviews the importance of approaching this multisystem disease with multidisciplinary care that incorporates novel therapies, lifestyle measures, patient education, and patient-clinician shared decision-making.
