NCT05301621

Brief Summary

This is a proof-of-concept study. The main goal is to evaluate if the accelerometry signal recorded from patients with arthritis in different disease activity stages, allows for assessment of the activity status. It will also be analysed if the accelerometry signal can be classified as registered in arthritis patients vs. registered in healthy control. Arthritis subjects will be recruited from the outpatients' clinic of the Rheumatology Department Helse Førde, Førde, Norway. Healthy control subjects will be recruited from the same administrative area as the patients and will be invited to participate via announcement on the Helse Forde Medical Trust website. Four visits to the site are planned for the arthritis group and one for the control group. The patients will be recruited in the active phase of arthritis as defined in the inclusion criteria. The study's secondary objective is to develop methods for analysing the accelerometry signal in arthritis patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Detection of arthritis activity status

    Analysis of raw akcelerometry will be used to detect disease activity status

    2023

Study Arms (2)

Arthritis patients

It is not planned any intervention. The patients' group will be invited to 4 visits.

Other: Akcelerometry follow up

Healthy controls

No intervention planned. Only one visit will be conducted.

Other: Akcelerometry follow up

Interventions

The patients and control group will be followed up with single accelerometer.

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients will be collected from Rheumatologic outpatients clinic Helse Forde. Only patients with the active disease will be included.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients:
  • Clinical diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or spondyloarthritis (SPA).
  • Planned or newly started (within 4 weeks before baseline visit) disease-modifying treatment.
  • Disis activity defined as:
  • RA - DAS28 (ESR or CRP) minimum 3.2,
  • PsA - DAPSA minimum 15,
  • SPA - BASDAI minimum 4.0.
  • A minimum number of tender or swollen joints:
  • RA - 4/4,
  • PsA - 2/2,
  • SPA - not applicable.

You may not qualify if:

  • Willing to participate and consent competent.
  • Over 18 years old.
  • Controls:
  • Without any inflammatory rheumatic disease
  • Willing to participate and consent competent.
  • Over 18 years old.
  • Both patients and controls:
  • Chronic neurologic disorders such as multiple sclerosis, parkinsonism, active epilepsy, symptomatic peripheral neuropathy, sequels after radiculopathy or other central nervous system deficit.
  • Paresis after cerebral stroke (mild deficits or TIA can be allowed).
  • Serious heart failure (NYHA 3 or above).
  • Pregnancy.
  • Active psychotic disorder.
  • Activ alcohol or drug addiction.
  • Fast use of medicine that can significantly influence CNS function (low dose sleeping medicine 12 hours before a visit can be allowed).
  • Spinal compression fractures less than six months before baseline.
  • +2 more criteria
