Background Despite the known benefits, many patients deny receiving sunscreen counseling. Over the past decade, rates and treatment costs for skin cancer have risen. Purpose This study seeks to investigate provider perceptions of using sunscreen prescriptions as a method to increase patient use. Methods A descriptive online survey using a convenience sample of dermatology, internal medicine, and family medicine providers was used. Descriptive statistics summarized quantitative variables, and thematic analysis examined open-ended questions. Results Provider (N = 38 total) thoughts about sunscreen prescriptions were mixed, with many viewing sunscreen prescriptions positively (n = 15, 42.9%). Commonly listed barriers included patient lack of motivation/interest (3.53 ± 0.89), lack of standard guidelines about sunscreen counseling and prescriptions (3.34 ± 1.12), and lack of education about prescribing sunscreen (3.26 ± 1.35). Facilitators included insurance coverage (n = 21, 61.8%) and having a standardized protocol (n = 8, 23.5%). Conclusion Most providers felt prescribing sunscreen would increase patient use. Study results imply providers would utilize sunscreen prescriptions if a clear, standardized protocol was present. Education may help alleviate concerns related to insurance coverage. In consideration of time constraints, it may be beneficial for sunscreen prescriptions to be added to routine after-visit summaries and educational materials.

ABSTRACT Halo nevi are commonly observed in children and adolescents and may coexist with other disorders including vitiligo and Turner syndrome. This review discusses the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of halo nevi, with a particular emphasis on pediatric patients.

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the skin health promotion program based on the health promotion model (HPM) to reduce hand eczema (HE) symptom severity and improve skin health behavior in young hairdressers and barber apprentices. Design and Methods The study was designed as pretest–posttest quasi-experimental control group research with repetitive measurements in the first-, third-, and sixth-month follow-up, which included 96 young workers (intervention = 48, control = 48). The program, as secondary prevention, consists of training with evidence-based recommendations, cognitive determinants, and practices to improve skin health behaviors. Findings The mean age of the young workers was 20.77 ± 4.85 years. After the sixth month of intervention, total severity scores of HE symptoms in the intervention group were significantly decreased from 5.92 to 2.91. In addition, the frequency of skin health behaviors and cognitive factors showed statistically positive changes (p < .05). Conclusions The skin health promotion program based on HPM is effective in reducing HE symptoms and improving the skin health behaviors of young workers. Healthcare professionals, especially nurses, can use the HPM-based skin health program to improve skin health and psychological health resulting from skin disease symptoms in other specific skin diseases for their patients.

ABSTRACT Written action plans for chronic diseases, such as asthma, guide parents to improve clinical outcomes for their children. Many primary care and specialty care clinicians follow national guidelines and prescribe asthma action plans annually. However, written action plans are not routinely prescribed for eczema, a chronic disease with high morbidity and prevalence that commonly presents before asthma symptoms develop. This quality improvement project initiated the use of eczema action plans with parents whose children were being managed by a pediatric dermatologist. Clinical outcomes and confidence among parents managing their child's eczema symptoms using an eczema action plan were measured. Many parents who followed individual eczema action plans reported improvement in their child's symptoms, supporting further investigation into the expected benefits of distributing eczema action plans for use at home, school, and other environments harboring potential eczema triggers.
