Three years after the publication of the German (S3) evidence based psoriasis guidelines--was it worth the effort?
The S3 (evidence-based) psoriasis guidelines were an important milestone in German dermatology. Three years after their publication, a review and evaluation of their success is important. ⋯ The guidelines' website as well as the original publication in the JDDG has been accessed more than 50,000 times. The guidelines' discussion was continued even after its publication and in further publications from within the group a therapeutic algorithm, treatment goals and indicators for the quality of care have been developed.
