Pediatric Urticaria Pigmentosa (UP) Registry added 4/26/11

 

Objectives:  Observational study to collect long term data on the natural history of UP, including timing to resolution, factors predicting progression, associated symptoms, and markers of severity.

 

Participants will receive a questionnaire/interview and physical exam every 1-2 years so that the extent and activity of their disease can be tracked.  Findings will be entered into a database registry.  In those with active UP,  laboratory testing requiring a small amount of blood may be needed.  Risks of the study are minimal.  The study has been approved by the Emory Institutional Review Board.

 

Study Population: Patients with urticaria pigmentosa diagnosed  at an age of < 15 and within the past 25 years.
