Sponsor: Brigham and Women's Hospital
Conditions: Arthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis
Interventions: Mobile Application, Population Management System
Countries: United States
The overall objective of this proposal is to implement a smart phone application (app) + population management system to monitor rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity between scheduled physician office visits. The population management system includes: 1) a web-based dashboard that consolidates incoming patient-reported data using pre-programmed algorithms to identify increases in disease activity, and 2) the population manager, a trained individual who monitors the web-based dashboard and connects patients with their healthcare providers (HCPs). The investigators central hypothesis is that the combined smart phone app + population management system will improve patient satisfaction and management of RA disease activity.
