What does the SCORAD formula include?

SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C. A = % body surface area affected (0-100). B = intensity sum (erythema, edema/papulation, oozing/crusting, excoriation, lichenification, dryness; each 0-3, max 18). C = patient-reported pruritus and sleeplessness (each 0-10).

What is objective SCORAD?

Objective SCORAD omits the subjective component (C) and uses only extent and intensity. It is better for inter-rater comparisons. Total = A/5 + 7B/2. Maximum = 83 (vs 103 for full SCORAD).

When is dupilumab indicated in atopic dermatitis?

Dupilumab (anti-IL-4/IL-13) is indicated for moderate-to-severe AD (SCORAD >25 or EASI >=16 or IGA >=3) inadequately controlled with topical therapies. FDA approved from age 6 months.

SCORAD Atopic Dermatitis Severity

Calculate SCORAD for atopic dermatitis: extent (0-100) x 0.2 + intensity (0-18) x 0.7 + symptoms (0-20) x 0.5. Mild <25, Moderate 25-50, Severe >50.
