Hidradenitis suppurativa burden of disease tool: Pilot testing of a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire

To the Editor: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting intertriginous areas of the body that dramatically impairs quality of life (QoL) and has a substantial psychosocial burden.1,2 Full remission of HS is rare, making improvements in QoL a critical goal of therapy. Currently, when investigating the impact of HS, we are limited to generic QoL questionnaires, none of which are specific for HS. We propose a disease-specific tool that would better capture the unique burden of disease caused by HS, which is necessary to determine the impact of therapeutic interventions in clinical trials and in the clinical setting.
