Abstract

Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is gradually becoming a standard outcome in clinical research and health care management. Nevertheless, application in dermatologic practice is not customary and many practical and attitudinal barriers need to be overcome. To contribute to the discussion on and the implementation of HRQoL assessment in routine dermatologic practice, this article describes (1) why HRQoL assessment is relevant for dermatologic practice, (2) which patients would benefit most from routine HRQoL assessment, and (3) how HRQoL assessment can be applied in clinical practice
