초록

아토피 피부염은 주로 유아와 소아에 발생하는 만성 재발성 피부염으로 유병률은 전 인구의 5-10% 정도로 보고되고 있으며, 미국의 경우 만 3-11세 아동의 20%에서 나타나며, 지난 30년간 계속적으로 증가하는 추세에 있다(Kay, Gawkrodger, Mortimer, & Jaron, 1994). 우리나라에서도 초등학생이 아토피 피부염을 진단 받은 경우가 1995년 16.6%에 비해2005년 24.9%로 증가되고 있어(Hong, Ahn, Lee, & Kim, 2008) 의료계의 관심뿐아니라 아동을 둔 부모의 관심도 집중되고 있는 실정이다.
정확한 병인은 알려져 있지 않지만 유전적, 환경적, 면역학적 요인이 복잡하게 연관되어 발병하는 것으로 추측되고 있으며, 유발요인으로 자극물질, 공기알레르기원, 음식, 미생물, 성호르몬, 스트레스 요인과 기후학적 요인이 알려져 왔다(Morren et al., 1994).
