- W2891381551 abstract "Conventional, full-body phototherapy equipment is costly and therefore patients are usually treated in dermatology centres. Such office-based therapy is often not feasible for those patients who live far away from a phototherapy centre due to lost time and wages, inability to travel because of extensive skin disease, or prohibitive travel costs. Home phototherapy has emerged as a modality that meets the needs of those patients. Our aim was to review available studies on UV sources, treatment protocols, efficacy, and safety of home phototherapy. A literature review was conducted on PubMed using the terms “home” AND “phototherapy” AND (“guide” OR “approach” OR “review” OR “protocol”). From the data extracted, narrowband UVB (311 nm) offers the best balance between safety and efficacy and is recommended for home phototherapy by most authors. Treatment is safe and possible adverse effects are related to overexposure (erythema, blistering). The usual treatment protocol was administering treatments on alternating days, including weekends, with dosing based on the patient’s Fitzpatrick skin type. We also provide information on the available home phototherapy systems in Canada and their reimbursement. Home phototherapy is underused in Canada. Narrowband UVB phototherapy sources equipped with a 3-dimensional panel provides a practical and safe option." @default.
