- Abstract
The main objective of this study was to assess the impact of atopic dermatitis (AD) on the quality of life (QOL) of caregivers of children and adolescents under 18, followed up in the municipality of Santo André. They were selected during consultations, being recorded general and disease data, and the questionnaire, The World Health Organization instrument to evaluate quality of life - WHOQOL-BREF, was applied to caregivers. For the statistical analysis, the qualitative variables described by absolute and relative frequencies were used. The data show a compromise in the QoL of caregivers of children and adolescents with AD, when compared to that of caregivers of healthy controls, especially in the physical, psychological and social relations domains. The presence of AD affects the family's QOL leading to a high degree of impairment of family dynamics.
