Can a simple questionnaire make virtual rheumatoid arthritis visits better?
NCT ID NCT05124782
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
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.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors better manage rheumatoid arthritis through telemedicine, potentially reducing the need for in-person visits.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed study with only 70 participants. The questionnaire may not improve outcomes for all patients, and telemedicine has limitations like inability to perform physical exams.
