摘要: In a controlled prospective study we compared the efficacy of combined salt water bath and UVA/B phototherapy to mono-phototherapy in patients with subacute atopic dermatitis (AD). The balneophototherapy group (n=16) were treated baths containing 3-5% synthetic Psori-sal(trade mark), followed immediately by irradiation, while other treatment arm (n=12) received alone. After 20 treatments showed statistically significant (p=0.0015) reduction SCORAD score from 69.5 before 36.8 after therapy. No could be observed (50.6 44.3 therapy). cumulative UVB dose was significantly lower (0.9 J/cm2) as monotherapy (2.0 J/cm2). Balneophototherapy well tolerated no side effects observed. We conclude that expands therapeutic options for dermatitis.
