Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Efficacy of 0.1% Triamcinolone Containing Wet Wrap as an Ointment or as a Cream Formulation in Patients With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis
Change in atopic dermatitis based on physician global assessment scale: 0=clear; 1=almost clear; 2=mild disease; 3=moderate disease; 4=severe disease; 5- very severe disease Lower scores represent a better outcome.
