Improve Adherence to Weak or Strong Opioid Analgesics at the Time of Care in Children With Hereditary Epidermolysis Bullosa

Hereditary epidermolysis bullosa (HEB) are rare genodermatoses, clinically characterized by epithelial and subepithelial fragility leading to the formation of blisters and spontaneous erosions on skin at the slightest contact, with possible mucosal damage. The care of these patients consists of therapeutic baths leading to renew bandages that sometimes covering the entire integument. These are difficult, delicate and painful moments that patients experience daily at home. For an unexplained reason for 70 to 80% of them, the weak or strong opioid analgesics, deemed necessary and prescribed for good pain control, are not taken on a regular basis as a premedication for baths and dressing changes. The aim of the study is to understand the child's brakes on taking weak or strong opioid analgesics at the time of care and the parents' difficulties in giving these treatments by means of individual interviews.
