Resumo
Urticária é uma doença pruriginosa da pele na qual ocorrem urticas e/ou angioedema. A urticária é definida como crônica quando persiste por 6 semanas ou mais. A urticária crônica tem um grande impacto na vida diária do paciente. Atualmente, não há biomarcadores confiáveis para identificar e medir a atividade da doença na urticária crônica espontânea. Consequentemente, o uso de ferramentas conhecidas por patient-reported outcomes (PROs) é crucial ao avaliar e monitorar diferentes aspectos da urticária crônica, como atividade/gravidade da doença, controle da doença e qualidade de vida. Apresentamos uma visão geral de cinco PROs usados na avaliação da urticária crônica, e destacamos suas vantagens, limitações e uso na prática clínica e pesquisa.

Abstract
Urticaria is an itching skin disease characterized by the presence of wheals and/or angioedema. Urticaria is defined as chronic when it persists for 6 weeks or more. Chronic urticaria has great impact on the daily lives of patients. Currently, there are no reliable biomarkers to identify and measure disease activity in chronic spontaneous urticaria. Consequently, the use of tools known as patient-reported outcomes (PROs) is crucial when evaluating and monitoring different aspects of chronic urticaria such as disease activity/severity, disease control, and quality of life. We present an overview of the five PROs used in the evaluation of chronic urticaria, highlighting their advantages, limitations, and use in clinical practice and research.
