Summary

This study tested whether a questionnaire called the Rheumatoid Arthritis Impact of Disease (RAID) could help doctors make better decisions during virtual consultations. 70 patients with rheumatoid arthritis participated. The goal was to see if using this tool reduced the need for in-person visits, hospitalizations, or changes in treatment.

If successful, this could help doctors better manage rheumatoid arthritis through telemedicine, potentially reducing the need for in-person visits.
