Can a nurse visit and Self-Monitoring improve RA care?

NCT ID NCT01315652

Summary

This study tested whether a specialized clinic visit could help people with rheumatoid arthritis. It checked if a nurse reviewing other health risks (like heart disease or infections) and teaching patients to track their own arthritis activity led to better care. About 970 stable adult patients in France were randomly assigned to receive one of these two approaches to see if it changed their treatment plans over six months.
