简要总结
The ReMonit study is a 18-months, non-inferiority randomized, controlled trial with three parallel arms to determine if two, new follow-up strategies for patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) are non-inferior in maintaining stable, low disease activity over time compared to the conventional follow-up regimen with regular hospital visits.
详细描述
The trial will include Norwegian adult males and females with axial spondyloarthritis.
240 participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to either:
- Control group: a. Usual care, i.e. conventional follow-up strategy with blood tests, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), and pre-scheduled visits at the hospital every 6th month
- Remote monitoring: hospital health professionals (HPs) perform remote monitoring of frequent PROs, blood test results, and physical activity data available on a digital platform
- Patient-initiated care: no pre-scheduled visits or remote monitoring
The study has 18 months follow-up. We will use a 15% non-inferiority margin.
The study will also include qualitative research including semi-structured interviews and observations of patients in the two intervention groups and health professionals involved in the study. The interviews will explore experiences with remote monitoring and video consultations.
