Abstract in brief

  • The study involves two randomized controlled trials testing the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of online behavioral interventions called ECO Eczema Care Online, aimed at helping young people aged 13-25 and parents or carers of children with eczema.
  • Participants are recruited from general practices in England and are randomly assigned to receive either the online interventions plus usual care or usual care alone, with outcomes measured over 24 to 52 weeks focusing on eczema severity, quality of life, and treatment adherence.
  • The research includes economic, process, and qualitative analyses to understand how the interventions work, their impact, and how they can be best implemented, with ethical approval and ongoing recruitment.
