Subject: Utilization pattern of Photostable sunscreen in real life scenario.
The term “Sunburn” is self-explanatory; it is an acute reaction of skin to damage by UV radiation. It can range from painless erythema (redness of the skin due to congestion of the capillaries) to edema (swelling) to vesicle and bullae formation. Unfortunately, when the skin is overexposed to ultraviolet radiation there are numerous harmful effects that may occur. The most noticeable is acute sunburn (solar erythema). Initially, UV radiation causes vasodilation of skin blood vessels, resulting in the characteristic erythema.
Sunscreens have been available since 1928 and play a major role in skin cancer prevention and sun protection. Sunscreens have been increasingly making their presence as a part of dermatological therapeutics. The primary use of sunscreens is to protect the skin from the short-term (burning and tanning) and long-term (photoaging and cancer) effects of UV radiation.
We invite you to participate in this cross sectional study. All you need to do is to report on a standard form your experience with Sunscreens. Thus, this is an observational study.
If you agree to participate, you will need to provide assessment response, on to the standard data collection form (which we call DCF). A monitor will assist you in verifying and collecting the DCF.
We trust you and we are partners in promoting safe and effective drug therapy. In that spirit we hope you will consent to participate in this study. If you do, please sign and return the enclosed reply along with your visiting card for accuracy of records.
