Welcome to the GAAPP #UrticariaDay2024!

To celebrate World Urticaria Day, GAAPP (Global Allergy & Airways Patient Platform) has compiled a valuable set of tools designed to support patients in managing their urticaria, from diagnosis through life-long care. These resources aim to empower individuals by providing practical guidance and knowledge.

The tools are:

  • Shared Decision-Making Tool, which fosters collaboration between patients and healthcare providers to tailor treatment plans that best fit individual needs.
  • The Urticaria Educational Flyer offers easy-to-understand information on the condition, helping the community understand this condition and how it is managed.
  • Lastly, the Urticaria Patient Charter (Simplified) outlines patients’ rights and responsibilities, ensuring they are fully aware of what they can expect from their care.

Together, these tools make managing urticaria more accessible and personalized.
