Objective: To evaluate what factors contribute to activity limitations in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis considering the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health model.
Methods: A cross-sectional study on 81 individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using instruments to measure five constructs of the component activities.
The investigators used the ICF model to analyze factors reported to be associated with functioning and disability in individuals with RA, including dexterity fatigue, stiffness , pinch, handgrip, strength, range of motion (ROM) deficit, deformities , mental health, vitality, and pain .

| observational study | Other | application of several standard instruments in patients with rheumatoid arthritis |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Model 1- Test d´Evaluation dês Membres Supérieurs de Personnes Agées, - TEMPA rheumatoid arthritis | The TEMPA is assessing the performance of the upper extremities and consists of eight standardized tasks. Scoring of the task analysis dimension ranges from zero to 150 (a score of zero indicates no disability). The TEMPA is scored according to the time required (in seconds) to complete each task; the higher the score, the greater the disability | up to thirty minutes |
| Model 2- Sequential Occupational Dexterity Assessment (SODA) | The SODA in patient population with RA score ranges from zero to 108 across these 12 tasks, has been validated for RA patients | up to thirty minutes |
| Model 3 and 4- SF-36=Short form health survey-36 | The SF-36 has eight scales and a final score ranging from zero to 100 for each of the eight dimensions (a score of 100 represents the best state of health). The Brazilian Portuguese version of the SF-36 in patient population with RA has been demonstrated to be a reproducible and valid. | up to thirty minutes |
| Model 5 - AIMS=Arthritis impact measurement scale | The score ranges from zero to 10 (a score of 10 indicates the worst state of health) in patient population with RA. The Portuguese version of AIMS2 has been shown to be satisfactory | up to thirty minutes |
