Medical Training AIEczema and Psoriasis Management
You'll be able to select and sequence topical, systemic, and biologic therapy for atopic dermatitis and psoriasis based on severity and patient factors.
What this track covers
This track covers the immunologic basis of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis and how that biology informs treatment choice. It works through topical regimens for mild to moderate disease, traditional systemic agents, and biologic therapy, including how to compare agents and monitor patients over time.
What you will practice
- Match disease severity to an appropriate topical, systemic, or biologic step-up
- Differentiate atopic dermatitis from psoriasis based on distribution and morphology
- Compare biologic classes by mechanism and monitoring requirements
- Identify baseline labs and screening needed before starting a systemic or biologic agent
- Recognize signs of treatment failure or flare requiring a regimen change
Simulator scenario
A patient with worsening plaque psoriasis on a topical-only regimen presents for follow-up, and the clinician must decide whether to escalate to systemic or biologic therapy.
Board question topics
- Topical corticosteroid potency and selection
- Biologic mechanism of action comparison
- Pre-treatment screening for systemic therapy
- Distinguishing eczema from psoriasis presentations
