Childhood Eczema

Trials are going on in the UK to ascertain whether silk underwear for children with eczema actually helps with this condition.  For this reason children with moderate or severe eczema are sought.   Professor Kim Thomas at the University of Nottingham, Centre of Evidence Based Dermatology will lead this trial.   This work is being funded by the National Institute for Health Research and involves NHS Trusts in Nottingham, London, Cambridge, Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight .  

Children enrolled on this scheme will participate for eight months.  If you have a child and would like to enrol it in this sceme you can email: clothes@nottingham.ac.uk
