Abstract

Patient reported outcomes have become increasingly important in the evaluation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) over recent years. Besides pain and functional capacity, fatigue, sleep and wellbeing are also important for RA patients. We will discuss here the importance of patient-reported outcomes, different domains of health, and how to evaluate them, with a focus on questionnaires available in Turkey.

Ağrı ve fonksiyonel kapasite haricinde yorgunluk, uyku ve iyilik de RA'lı hastalar için önemlidir. Bu derlemede hasta ilişkili sonuç parametreleri ve sağlığın farklı alanlarının önemini, nasıl değerlendirileceğini Türkiye'de kullanılan anketlere odaklanarak tartışacağız.
