[Fluvographic research in atopic dermatitis during climatotherapy/North Sea (author's transl)].
Measurements of thermal conductivity were carried out by using a fluvograph on a group of 68 adult patients with atopic dermatitis in the maritime climate of the North Sea island Norderney. The data obtained at the beginning of treatment - especially in the atopic dermatitis infiltrate - showed in comparison with a control-group of 20 persons without skin problems on average an obvious reduction in thermal conductivity as well as in supply of skin with blood. Repeated fluvographic measurements done on patients with atopic dermatitis show a significant increase towards normalization reflecting the improvement of atopic dermatitis skin lesions during clinical treatment in the maritime climate of the North Sea island.
