Seeing the Treatment of Psoriasis in a New Light: A Novel Medical Device Utilizing Localized Coal Tar and Narrowband UVB for Targeted Treatment of Plaque Psoriasis.

Given the high costs of systemic psoriasis therapies, studies have also shown that phototherapy achieves significant cost savings by replacing or delaying drug-based systemic treatment in patients with moderate to severe disease. However, this modality is often underutilized mainly due to the lack of phototherapy treatment centers across the country. Home phototherapy was designed to fill this treatment gap and allow patients to be treated with phototherapy despite living in areas that may not have a formal treatment facility. Inspired by the Goeckerman regimen, a preliminary pilot study showed that a novel, home phototherapy device utilizing a mobile phone-controlled L.E.D UVB light source and an occlusive hydrogel patch containing coal tar was superior to control as well as both NB-UVB alone and a coal tar dressing alone.Visit the Psoriasis Resource Center for more on this topic.
