Abstract
Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) is an important outcome to dermatologic diseases such as rosacea; however, the literature has shown that only limited studies have included HRQoL to evaluate treatment outcomes.(1) This analysis aims to compare the outcomes of treatments for rosacea by measuring the HRQoL using two patient-reported outcomes (PRO) instruments (DLQI-Dermatology Life Quality Index and EQ-5D) focusing on the long term, as results from the initial 16-week treatment for DLQI have been published elsewhere.(2) The EQ-5D is a generic utility measure consisting of five questions and a visual analog scale (VAS).
