Sumario:The objective to determine the relationship of Psoriasis with the quality of life in patients of the Loreto regional hospital in Iquitos, Peru. Methodology: Confirmatory research with non-experimental design, cross-sectional field; the non-probabilistic sample of 80 patients with psoriasis, older than 18 years, who are cared for at the Regional Hospital of Loreto and agreed to participate in the study. Results: 67.5% of the patients present a severe level of severity and 86.3% present a moderate level of magnitude of the disease. The severity of psoriasis is significantly (0.01) related to quality of life in a degree (0.28) of moderate correlation. The magnitude of psoriasis is verified to be not significantly related (0.43) with quality of life by one degree (0.08) with almost zero correlation. Conclusion. The quality of life of patients with psoriasis and the degree of affectation has a moderate correlation; psoriasis minimizes and deteriorates the quality of life of the person, although this can generate a coping mechanism to live in society.
