Establishing core domain sets for Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO) and Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis, Osteitis (SAPHO): A report from the OMERACT 2020 special interest group

Abstract

Objective: A working group was established to develop a core domain set (CDS) for Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO) and Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis, Osteitis (SAPHO) following the OMERACT filter 2.1. Methods: A scoping review to identify disease-related manifestations was performed, followed by a special interest group (SIG) session at OMERACT2020 to begin the CNO/SAPHO CDS framework. Results: Candidate items were identified from the scoping review and most fell under Life Impact and Pathophysiology Manifestation core areas. A SIG agreed on the need to develop a CDS for CNO and SAPHO (100%) and for children and adults (91%). Conclusion: Based on candidate items identified, qualitative research and Delphi surveys will be performed as next steps.
