Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism: Management of Comorbidities in Ambulatory Medicine

Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism: Management of Comorbidities in Ambulatory Medicine

Identification of factors limiting compliance with the recommendations established during the evaluation of the SCORIC population by the rheumatology department of the CHU Grenoble Alpes

In the rheumatology department of the CHU Grenoble Alpes, Professor Baillet and other rheumatologists have set up a holistic assessment of inflammatory rheumatism (rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis) and associated co-morbidities in a day hospital. Based on this assessment, a hospital report is drawn up summarising the patient's treatment options, which is then sent to the patient's referring physician. They analysed the first 100 patients in the cohort and showed that 98% of patients were not up to date with their care. Their longitudinal analysis shows that patients update two thirds of the recommendations made within 12 to 18 months. Therefore, the investigators would like to assess the applicability of this screening in these patients, through a questionnaire sent to the 400 patients of the cohort and to their treating physicians.
