Textbook images of dermatological conditions primarily showcase manifestations on light skin, leading to a significant underrepresentation of patients with skin of colour (SOC).&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1, 2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Previous research has revealed that common skin conditions may possess distinct variations in patients with SOC&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;3, 4&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; yet this remains largely unexplored within the realm of dermatological emergencies. Given doctors in the emergency department are likely to encounter such presentations before dermatologist consultation, providing comprehensive education in this domain is crucial. The objective of this study is to evaluate and address the knowledge gaps and preferences for further education initiatives among emergency medicine practitioners in diagnosing dermatological emergencies in patients with SOC, with the overarching goal of enhancing patient care across diverse populations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An online survey and quiz were distributed among emergency medicine practitioners in Victoria, Australia from February to October 2023. The survey gathered information regarding participant demographics, confidence in diagnosing dermatological emergencies in individuals with SOC and attitudes towards current training formats. The quiz comprised clinical images of dermatological emergencies in four separate patients with SOC, accompanied by multiple-choice questions. A total of 76 doctors participated in the survey, including 17 junior doctors (22%), 18 registrars (24%) and 41 consultants (54%).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our quiz findings indicate variations in response accuracy across different questions, highlighting existing uncertainty among emergency medicine practitioners in diagnosing dermatological emergencies specific to SOC. Question 1 showed an image of lower limb cellulitis in an adult with Fitzpatrick skin type (FST) 6 for which 36% of respondents selected the correct answer. Background pigmentation masking erythema in darker skin tones may have contributed to the low amount of correct responses.&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;5&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Question 2 showed an image of eczema herpeticum in a child with FST 3 for which 78% of respondents selected the correct answer. The appearance of monomorphic vesicles and punched-out erosions in this condition is less influenced by alterations in the background skin pigmentation, potentially contributing to the observed high rate of accurate responses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Question 3 showed an image of psoriatic erythroderma in an adult with FST 6 for which 45% of respondents selected the correct answer. Psoriatic plaques in SOC have a violaceous hue compared with salmon-pink plaques observed in light skin&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt; which may have caused difficulty identifying the correct answer.
