Study Description

Primary objective To compare the detection rate of PsA with EARP screening versus detection rate of PsA without EARP screening in routine clinical practice in dermatological clinics amongst moderate to severe Korean Psoriasis (PsO) patients

Endpoint:

• Detection rate of PsA

Secondary Objective To compare the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) between EARP questionnaire (EARP group) and the investigator's judgement (Routine practice group) To describe the patient characteristics and disease severity between PsA and non-PsA patients

Endpoint:

Sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV
Description of demographic characteristics, medications and PsO related characteristics
