New App Helps Physicians and Patients Take Control of Contact Dermatitis

The new CARD smart phone app streamlines information about contact dermatitis that assists patients in selecting safe products for their condition. The app allows patients to screen skin-care products for chemicals to avoid. Physicians can also subscribe to CARD, which allows them unlimited access to create lists for patients once patch testing is completed. The app also features educational content, screens for cross-reactors, automatic alerts for formulary changes, and a personalized patient diary to tract reactions.
