NCT03376243

Brief Summary

The aim of this pragmatic, parallel group, assessor-blind randomised open-label prospective study is to determine the reasons that motivate parents to enrol or not enrol their child in a randomized, controlled basic emollient trial for the prevention of atopic eczema (AE). Furthermore, this trial intends to test the hypothesis that daily skin barrier enhancement with Lipikar Baume AP+® in newborns at high risk is safe and efficient in preventing AE. T
