Adults with EOE market research survey
02. February 2021
Dr. Falk Pharma would like to thank all responders to our survey on Adults with EoE.
There was a total of 68 people who participated in this survey, a great result in the short time frame.
Some valuable insights captured from the survey include:
- EoE can take considerable time to be diagnosed due to low awareness on EoE and its overlapping symptoms with other conditions.
- Diagnoses of EoE in adults most commonly occurs between the ages of 19 - 40 years.
- 39% of responders have experienced food impaction requiring removal at some point with 74% of them requiring hospital emergency department attendance.
- 55% of responders experience moderate to severe pain or discomfort when their EoE-related symptoms are not controlled.
- 48% of responders have moderate to severe anxiety or depression when their EoE-realted symptoms are not controlled.
