Exfoliative Dermatitis Introduction Exfoliative dermatitis, also known as exfoliative erythroderma, begins as a rapidly developing, generalized redness of the skin surface. Fine scales or thick sheets of desquamation follow the erythrodermic stage. [randyjacobsmd.com]
Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a chronic generalized exfoliative dermatitis (sloughing skin) characterized by erythema (redness), scaling, dilated plugged hair follicles, and keratoderma (thickened skin) of the hands and feet that is often associated [glutenfreeworks.com]

Workup
Once the erythroderma is being managed, further workup for underlying pathology is imperative as the therapies vary depending on the underlying disease processes. B. Anticipated length of Stay. [clinicaladvisor.com]
A general medical workup is warranted, to help to determine the presence of possible underlying malignancy or infection, and the extent of any resultant metabolic derangement. [randyjacobsmd.com]
Diagnostic workup includes a complete history and physical examination, with careful analysis of pertinent clinical clues and dermatohistopathology. Other laboratory workup is often required and determined by clinical clues. [plasticsurgerykey.com]
Treatment
The book provides abbreviated clinical descriptions, as well as outline of treatment. The book first offers information on the differential diagnosis and treatment of acne, alopecia areata, chilblains, and dermatitis artefacta. [books.google.com]
Treatment of complications. Nutritional support. There is a dearth of high-quality evidence on which to base treatment decisions: [ 6 ] Topical tar therapy and phototherapy should be avoided in the early phases of treatment. [patient.info]
Subsequently, treatment of the patient with PPIs was terminated, after which the tracheal hemoptysis and skin rashes markedly improved. In addition, no new skin rashes appeared following termination of the PPI treatment. [spandidos-publications.com]
Initial evaluation and treatment usually require hospitalization for fluid and electrolyte replacement, temperature modulation, and prevention and treatment of secondary infection. [mitchmedical.us]
Prognosis
The text also presents the prognosis and treatment of the different variations of eczema and epidermophytosis. [books.google.com]
Prognosis Prognosis is variable: where there is pre-existing, extensive plaque psoriasis, treatment is usually well-tolerated and the prognosis is good; however, with unstable psoriasis, the course is often prolonged, relapses are frequent and there is [patient.info]
The long-term prognosis is good in patients with drug-induced exfoliative dermatitis. The course tends to be remitting and relapsing in idiopathic cases. [mitchmedical.us]
[…] of erythroderma depends on the cause, which if can be removed or corrected then the prognosis is generally very good. [pcds.org.uk]
Etiology
No other clinical or laboratory findings were associated with any specific etiology. [astrocyte.in]
The text ponders on the etiology and treatment of herpes zoster, impetigo, kerion, lichen planus, lupus vulgaris, and psoriasis. The manuscript is a dependable reference for readers interested in the commoner disease. [books.google.com]
ED patients commonly report thermoregulatory disturbances, malaise, fatigue, and pruritus; these symptoms are not specific to any etiology. The onset of symptoms is important to assess different etiologies of ED. [plasticsurgerykey.com]
ABSTRACT: Erythroderma is a condition caused by several etiologies that result in red inflamed skin on 90% or more of the body surface. [nursingcenter.com]
Epidemiology
Other drugs specifically indicated for management of underlying cause of exfoliative dermatitis may be necessary. [ citation needed ] Epidemiology [ edit ] The incidence of erythroderma is estimated to be 1-2 in 100,000 [6]. [en.wikipedia.org]
Albeit the lack of epidemiologic data regarding EM, its reported prevalence is less than 1 % [ 7 – 10 ]. [clinicalmolecularallergy.biomedcentral.com]
ED is a rare disease in children, and only little epidemiologic data is available for pediatric populations. [plasticsurgerykey.com]
Epidemiology: Erythroderma is a rare skin disorder with an estimated annual incidence of 1 to 2 patients per 100,000 population. It is more common in males with a male to female ratio of 2:1 to 4:1. [bobbybukamd.com]

Pathophysiology

Another study showed that Sézary syndrome and inflammatory ED are characterized by different memory T-cell subset expression, further suggesting different pathophysiologic mechanisms. 28 The interaction between adhesion molecules and their ligands is [plasticsurgerykey.com]
Pathophysiology An increased skin blood perfusion occurs in exfoliative dermatitis (ED) that results in temperature dysregulation (resulting in heat loss and hypothermia) and possible high-output cardiac failure. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Prevention
Skin creams containing omega-3 fatty acids can lessen the severity of skin symptoms and, in some cases, prevent dermatitis. [britannica.com]
Antibiotics can treat and prevent dangerous skin infections. Paying proper attention to wound care and dressings is an important part of preventing infections. Your doctors will also manage any underlying conditions. [healthline.com]
