Introduction to the complexity of the disease and important care issues
Webinar på engelsk
Epidermolysis bullosa, or EB, is the name of a group of rare, inherited skin conditions that result in easy blistering of the skin and mucous membranes. It poses treatment and care challenges, but is it possible to simplify patient care for this complex condition?
This August 17th live webinar discusses what EB is, its complexities and different types of EB. The webinar also covers three EB patient care aspects:
- Wound management
- Pain management
- Nutrition
Presenter Dr Sophie Kitzmüller, head of the EB Academy in Austria, will also answer questions in a live post-webinar Q&A session.
