A survey was conducted to evaluate how clinicians worldwide manage scabies. The survey included different scenarios and settings, and most respondents were dermatologists. The study found that there was a wide variation in the first-line treatment proposed depending on the scenario, with oral ivermectin and permethrin 5% cream being the most popular choices. The study also highlighted the lack of consensus on treatment recommendations and the widespread use of decontamination measures, despite their questionable value. The limitations of the study included the use of a vignette-based survey and the predominantly dermatologist participants from high-income settings. Further research is needed to assess the effectiveness of different treatments and approaches in various locations and healthcare settings. [Extracted from the article] |
