Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Disease flares

    The number of disease flares 6 months after baseline visit. A disease flare is defined as a cJADAS score of \>3.

    5-7 months after inclusion.

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Rescheduled visits

    Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  • Disease flares at rescheduled visits

    Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  • Adverse events

    Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  • Patient satisfaction

    5-7 months after inclusion.

  • Reminders

    Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Home-monitoring arm

EXPERIMENTAL

After inclusion, participants will skip one regular 3-monthly control visit and instead complete an online EQ-5D-Y-5L and JAMAR questionnaire. 5-7 months after inclusion, participants will be followed-up at the hospital and complete a questionnaire about their experiences with home-monitoring.

Procedure: Home-monitoring

Interventions

Questionnaires for home-monitoring will be send to the participants 11 weeks after the baseline visit via e-mail using Castor EDC and can be completed using a computer, tablet or smartphone. Home-monitoring can be done together with a parent or guardian, if needed.
