New evidence against bath emollients in treatment of eczema - Episode 26
In case you haven't seen it yet, Jen and Amy discuss the recently published BATHE study (May 2018) which looked at the use of bath emollients in the treatment of childhood eczema.
This new research represents strong evidence for a significant change in health visitor practice - share it far and wide!
We really recommend reading the paper and looking at the infogram abstract and the accompanying video explaining the results - it's a very well presented and accessible piece of research (and, as a bonus, Professor Howard Williams has a very nice friendly voice!)
