To determine the prevalence of eczema among children in New Zealand.
Methods
Population‐based retrospective observational study utilising national pharmaceutical dispensing records for topical corticosteroids and emollients for all New Zealand children aged 0–14 years from 1st January 2006 to 31st December 2019. Data are reported using descriptive statistics, with comparisons between ethnicities and socioeconomic quintiles undertaken with rate ratios.
Results
Based on dispensing data, the prevalence of eczema for New Zealand children aged 0–14 years in 2018 was 14.0% (95% CI 14.0%–14.1%), with prevalence decreasing in older age groups (children aged |

To determine the prevalence of eczema among children in New Zealand.
Methods
Population‐based retrospective observational study utilising national pharmaceutical dispensing records for topical corticosteroids and emollients for all New Zealand children aged 0–14 years from 1st January 2006 to 31st December 2019. Data are reported using descriptive statistics, with comparisons between ethnicities and socioeconomic quintiles undertaken with rate ratios.
Results
Based on dispensing data, the prevalence of eczema for New Zealand children aged 0–14 years in 2018 was 14.0% (95% CI 14.0%–14.1%), with prevalence decreasing in older age groups (children aged <1 year 26.0% (25.6%–26.4%); children aged 10–14 years 8.8% (8.7%–8.9%)). Prevalence was higher in Pacific children (23.6% (23.3%–24.0%)), but slightly lower in Māori children (13.2% (13.0%–13.3%)).
Conclusion
Eczema is a common condition affecting a considerable proportion of children in New Zealand. This study provides nationwide paediatric prevalence data for New Zealand, and highlights the increased burden of eczema in Pacific children. Inequity in dispensing of topical corticosteroids is postulated to explain the reduced rates found for Māori children compared to previous studies. These results support the need for further research to determine factors contributing to differing eczema prevalence rates in New Zealand.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0004-8380</identifier><identifier>ISSN: 1440-0960</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1440-0960</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1111/ajd.14347</identifier><identifier>PMID: 39003644</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Australia: Wiley Subscription Services, Inc</publisher><subject>Administration, Topical ; Adolescent ; Adrenal Cortex Hormones - administration & dosage ; Adrenal Cortex Hormones - therapeutic use ; atopic dermatitis ; Child ; Child, Preschool ; Children ; Corticosteroids ; dispensing records ; Eczema ; Eczema - drug therapy ; Eczema - epidemiology ; Female ; Humans ; Infant ; Infant, Newborn ; Male ; Maori People ; New Zealand ; New Zealand - epidemiology ; Pacific Island People ; Paediatric prevalence ; Pediatrics ; Population studies ; Prevalence ; Retrospective Studies ; Steroids</subject><ispartof>Australasian journal of dermatology, 2024-11, Vol.65 (7), p.576-584</ispartof><rights>2024 Australasian College of Dermatologists.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2024 The Australasian College of Dermatologists</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c2437-7b5c2ba1b0d5f76e8a5b1ccfcf1e07034efcc68ab85eb8c226af58205c6fd5493</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-3485-3293 ; 0000-0002-4501-2211</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111%2Fajd.14347$$EPDF$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111%2Fajd.14347$$EHTML$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,777,781,1412,27905,27906,45555,45556</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/39003644$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Harvey, Georgina</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Purvis, Diana J.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Thompson, John M.
