Article Abstract
Although dermatologists are well-trained in the medical management of complex skin disease, psychosocial care often exceeds a dermatologist's skillset. We aim to elucidate major factors to consider in the comprehensive management of pediatric epidermolysis bullosa (EB) and provide care recommendations. There are many types of trauma a child with EB may experience, from social to psychological to medical. We include information on trauma-informed care and advice for the dermatologist and multidisciplinary team regarding patient-centered and family-centered approaches to recognizing and reducing anxiety and trauma in EB patients.
