NCT04402554

Brief Summary

Patients with inflammatory rheumatism very often have residual pain that is not easily relieved by conventional treatments. They can then use non-drug methods, such as physiotherapy, hypnosis or even cannabis. The aim of this study is to assess the percentage of patients who use cannabis to better relieve their pain or anxiety in chronic inflammatory rheumatism.

Interventions

The effectiveness and use of cannabis in the management of chronic pain has been well known for many years, but has so far been illegal and therefore largely unacknowledged. We hypothesize that the use of cannabis in this population of patients with chronic joint or spinal pain is not anecdotal and responds to a need to further improve the overall management of patients. The objective of our anonymous questionnaire is to estimate the prevalence of cannabis use in patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatism.
