Assessment of Physician Consideration of Electronic Patient Reported Outcomes, from Patients with Gout, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren's Syndrome or Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, on the Frequency of Therapeutic Adjustments

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Inflammatory rheumatic diseases affect 1% of the population. Treatment of such diseases should be based on disease activity, safety issues and other patient characteristics such as comorbidities (EULAR, 2022), leading to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. To this end, the general treat-to-target approach, as recommended in the EULAR guidance, may require several successive treatment lines based on updates to the patients' profile and close monitoring as the keystone of its implementation. Regular feedback from patients could be used to fuel such strategies. This feedback can be collected using an ePRO (electronic Patient Reported Outcome). The purpose of this study is therefore to assess patient management using the information provided by patients through e-PROs, which will transfer the data provided by the patient to the physician and will notify the investigators via email when a patient has completed a form (no data interpretation or alerts). The hypothesis is that the more physicians are provided with insights into their patients' health, the more they will function in a treat-to-target approach and the more often they will tend to adjust their patients' treatments.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study looks at whether doctors adjust medications more often when they can see regular patient-reported symptom data (collected through an app or online tool) from people with autoimmune conditions like gout, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, or lupus. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, gout, systemic lupus erythematosus, or Sjogren's syndrome - You have access to the internet and a working email and phone number - You are physically and mentally able to use an online computer tool **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a neurodegenerative disease affecting your thinking - You have a refractory (treatment-resistant) cancer - You do not have internet access - You cannot be followed by a doctor for 2 years - You are legally protected or detained and cannot give free consent - Your life expectancy is less than 1 year Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
