Study Description

This study will be conducted to address the lack of concrete data on the impact of pharmaceutical intervention on short-term patient satisfaction and quality of life (QoL) in patients with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) in real-world settings, especially in the Gulf Region. This is a 24-week longitudinal single-arm prospective study based on data collected from EMRs along with patient-reported outcomes questionnaires (TSQM and DLQI) to evaluate patient-reported satisfaction and early quality of life experiences among HS patients who are newly initiated on Secukinumab. We will be using questionnaires at baseline and at week 24 to report on pre-defined outcomes in a representative HS population across the United Arab Emirates. The data will be collected using an electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) from both data sources (Electronic Medical Report and Questionnaires).
