A precise tool.
What is the Scorad Calculator & How does it work?
The SCORAD (Scoring Atopic Dermatitis) is a widely used method for assessing the severity of atopic dermatitis in children and adults. It evaluates various aspects such as erythema, induration, exudate, dryness, lesion area, and impact on daily activities.
Each component is scored from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms. The total SCORAD score ranges from 0 to 100, where a score of 20 or less indicates mild disease, 21-40 moderate, and over 40 severe.
text{SCORAD} = frac{(E + I + X + D) times 100}{A} + L
E = Erythema score, I = Induration score, X = Exudate score, D = Dryness score, A = Lesion area in percentage of body surface area, L = Impact on daily activities score
