Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Secondary · Baseline, week 4, 8 and 26

Change from baseline to week 4 Description of Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI): A score from 0-30 \[0, patients' quality of life not affected; 30, patients' quality of life severely affected by the skin disease\]. The DLQI-scale is a summary of 10 questions on subscales, where patients' report how severely their quality of life has been affected for the last week (patient reported outcome measurements (PROM), each subscale have a score from 0 (not affected by skin disease) to 3 (severely affected by skin disease). The minimum score is 0 and the highest score is 30, a high score means wo

Lattice-System Physician's Global Assessment (LS-PGA) Secondary · Week 4, 8 and 26

Change from baseline to week 4, 8 and 26 Lattice System Physican's Gloabal Assessment (LS-PGA) is a measure from 0-8 (0, patients skin clear; 8, patients' skin severely affected by psoriasis). The scale is a summary of three subscales: 1). thickness of psoriasis, 2). extent of scaling and 3). body surface ares (BSA) affected. The minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 8, a high score represents a worse outcome.

Sponsor's own description

Medical adherence to topical corticosteroid products in psoriasis patients is a main determinant for poor treatment effect. The investigators aim to test if a multifaceted intervention delivered in an app (MyPso QualityCareTM owned by Leo Pharma) for smartphones combined with an Electronic Monitor (EM) (Teslo) can improve medical adherence among psoriasis patients treated with a topical calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate foam combination (Cal/BD) (Enstilar©). The study is classified as a phase 4 study, since it is studied if improved use of Enstilar© results in improved treatment outcomes.
