ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, titled "Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism: Management of Comorbidities in Ambulatory Medicine," is looking into how to better manage chronic inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. The goal is to identify what factors might prevent patients from following the treatment recommendations provided by their doctors. This research is being conducted at the CHU Grenoble Alpes hospital, and they are currently recruiting participants.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be adults over 18 years old who have been treated for one of the specified conditions and have been hospitalized in the rheumatology department. Both patients and their referring physicians can participate in the study, but certain individuals, such as those with severe psychiatric issues or minors, are excluded. If you join this study, you can expect to help researchers understand better ways to support patients in following their treatment plans, ultimately aiming to improve health outcomes for those living with chronic inflammatory diseases.
