eNAPPA

Nail assessment made easy and quick

 

What is the eNAPPA?

 

 

The eNAPPA is composed of three different tools, each of which can be used independently of the others:


1) The eNAPPA QoL is filled out by the patient and aims to assess the quality of life in patients with nail psoriasis.
2) The eNAPPA PBI is used to assess the patient-relevant treatment benefit in nail psoriasis from the patient’s point of view.
3) In the eNAPPA Clin, the clinical severity of nail psoriasis is assessed by the treating physician.

How to use the eNAPPA

 

The NAPPA-QOL and NAPPA-PBI questionnaires are filled out by the patient himself. The questionnaire is self-explanatory, yet patients can be supported if they are not able to fill it in by themselves. The NAPPA-CLIN is filled out by the dermatologist or assisting person. This part needs a basic understanding of clinical signs on the nails.

 

The three components (modules) have been developed and validated on an international basis. Thus, several language versions are available. The modules can be used independently of each other.

 

The following versions of the eNAPPA are available

 

The impact of nail psoriasis

More than 50% of moderate to severe psoriasis patients have nail involvement which in many cases causes functional and emotional impairment and can be painful. Measurement of patient-related outcomes is essential for research and clinical care.
