Spondyloarthritis & psoriatic arthritis

Association of validated patient reported outcome measures with patients’ self-reported disease status in axial spondyloarthritis

Rheumatology (Oxford)Published Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Patients' self-reported disease status was well captured by ASDAS and BASDAI in most clinical visits. Other investigated measures used in clinical trials failed to capture patients' self-reported disease status in a large proportion of visits.
