Summary

The study is a sequentially recruited, cross-over-cohort, outpatient-based evaluation of the effectiveness of wool clothing, as compared to standard clothing, in reducing the severity of childhood atopic dermatitis (eczema) over two consecutive six-week periods.

Conditions

  • Dermatitis, Atopic

Interventions

OTHER

wool clothing

superfine merino wool ensembles for baby/child wear

OTHER

standard clothing

Standard clothing refers to the clothing normally worn by the infant/child. This will not be superfine merino wool as superfine merino is not generally available for baby wear. The exact nature of the standard clothing will be recorded by investigators. From previous data we expect it to be primarily cotton.
