Step-by-Step Calculation

SCORAD CALCULATION

SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C, where A=extent, B=intensity, C=subjective

COMPONENT A: EXTENT (Body Surface Area)

Extent calculation (adult proportions)

A = 0.0% BSA affected

COMPONENT B: INTENSITY (6 items, 0-3 each)

B = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0/18

COMPONENT C: SUBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS (VAS 0-10)

C = Pruritus (0) + Sleep Loss (0) = 0/20

TOTAL SCORAD SCORE

SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C

SCORAD = 0.0/5 + 7ร—0/2 + 0

SCORAD = 0.00 + 0.00 + 0 = 0.0

Objective SCORAD (A/5 + 7B/2) = 0.0

INTERPRETATION

SCORAD 0.0 = Mild (Less than 25)

SCORAD Severity Classification

Score RangeSeverityClinical Significance
Less than 25MildLimited disease, good response to basic therapy
25-50ModerateSignificant disease impact, requires active management
Greater than 50SevereSignificant quality of life impact, specialist management needed

๐Ÿฉบ What is SCORAD?

The SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) index was developed by the European Task Force on Atopic Dermatitis in 1993 as a standardized tool to assess the severity of atopic dermatitis (eczema).

It combines objective physician assessment (extent and intensity) with patient-reported symptoms (pruritus and sleep disturbance) for a comprehensive severity score.

Score Interpretation

  • โ€ข Less than 25: Mild atopic dermatitis
  • โ€ข 25-50: Moderate atopic dermatitis
  • โ€ข Greater than 50: Severe atopic dermatitis

๐Ÿ“‹ How to Calculate SCORAD

  1. Assess Extent (A): Estimate % of each body region affected (Rule of 9s)
  2. Assess Intensity (B): Score 6 items (0-3 each) on a representative area
  3. Record Symptoms (C): Patient rates pruritus and sleep loss (VAS 0-10)
  4. Calculate: SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C

Formula: SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C

Maximum possible score: ~103

โฐ When to Use SCORAD

Clinical Applications

  • โ€ข Initial severity assessment
  • โ€ข Treatment response monitoring
  • โ€ข Clinical trial endpoints
  • โ€ข Specialist referral decisions
  • โ€ข Systemic therapy eligibility

Assessment Frequency

  • โ€ข At baseline for new patients
  • โ€ข Every 2-4 weeks during flares
  • โ€ข Every 1-3 months on maintenance
  • โ€ข Before and after treatment changes

๐Ÿ“ SCORAD Formula

SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 + C

A = Extent (0-100% BSA)

B = Intensity (0-18, sum of 6 items)

C = Subjective (0-20, pruritus + sleep loss)

Objective SCORAD = A/5 + 7B/2 (without subjective symptoms)
