What causes irritant contact dermatitis?

Chemical
Detergents
Solvents
Wet work
Pot washing
Wet food preparation
Types of Contact Dermatitis
Irritant Contact Dermatitis
An inflammatory reaction in the skin resulting
from exposure to a substance that causes an
eruption in most people who come in contact
with it
Allergic Contact Dermatitis
An acquired delayed sensitivity to various
substances that produce inflammatory
reactions in only those who have been
previously sensitized to the allergen
8
Irritant Contact Dermatitis
Pathogenesis
The irritants cause cell damage if applied
for sufficient time and in adequate
concentration. Inflammatory response
occurs because of the inability of the skin
to defend and repair its integrity and
function from penetrating chemicals.

Irritant Contact Dermatitis
Etiologic Agents
Water, soaps, detergents, bleaches, lye, drain pipe
cleaners, toilet bowl and oven cleansers
Acids and Alkalis
Solvents and Hydrocarbons
Fiberglass, dust, capsaicin, teargas, metal salts
Predisposing Factors
History of atopic dermatitis
Occupational exposure/ Repeated exposure
Low temperature/ Low humidity
Condition of the skin 10
Irritant contact dermatitis
Skin damaged directly by the irritant
soaps, detergents, water, solvents, dry
atmosphere etc
very, very common
atleast 5% of the population suffer from
hand dermatitis
Treat with emollients/moisturisers
Contact Dermatitis
The generic term applied to acute and chronic inflammatory
reactions to substances that come in contact with the skin
Acute dermatitis: pruritus, erythema, and vesiculation
Chronic dermatitis: pruritus, xerosis, lichenification,
hyperkeratosis, and/or fissuring

12
Irritant Contact Dermatitis
Irritant contact dermatitis occurs when chemicals or physical agents damage
the surface of the skin faster than the skin is able to repair the damage.

Irritants include such everyday things as water, detergents, solvents, acids,


alkalis, adhesives, metalworking fluids and friction.

Chronic Irritant Contact Dermatitis
Prolonged and repeated exposures of the skin to
irritants results to a chronic disturbance of the
barrier function, subsequently, elicit a chronic
inflammatory response.

Tests for Sensitivity
Provocative Use Test
Confirms a positive closed patch test reaction
to ingredients of a substance; to test products
that are made to stay on the skin once applied
Photopatch Test
To evaluate for contact photoallergy to such
substances as sulfonamides, phenothiazines,
PABA, oxybenzone, musk ambrette

27
Tests for Sensitivity
PATCH TEST
To detect hypersensitivity to a substance that is in
contact with skin so that the allergen may be
determined and corrective measures taken
